Cloud Boat Bastion lyrics

i left these things in my back garden
and they grew with the grass
i left these secrets on my father's coatpeg
and they break him like the waves

i need to feel like you will watch my babies be born
we'll sit in the flowers and we'll stay there
until i'm ready to be a man
until the days don't feel so heavy on my back

i'll break the windows and i'll burn the floors

but you won't clean them
i'll lift the carpets and i'll open the doors
but it's been years since anyone used them

i need to feel like you will need me when you grow old
we'll in the sit flowers and we'll stay there
until i'm ready to be a man
until the days don't feel so heavy on my back
