desert song Songtext
von Elena Steri

I know what it′s like to hold your breath
But shutting down will move your suffering to the next
I miss you like my childhood friends
But just like them I don't want you back
I′ve counted the dents in my ceiling
Twelve and a half times too often
It took me 23 years to get it
My parents don't have a movie marriage
I know what it's like to blame yourself
For every change out of your hands The size of your palms, the width of your hips
If you should respect a thing it′s this
I was tired, went and and rested
Weary-eyed, just for a second
Knowing you′ll be there like you always were
I'm all that once was but I am not my past
I′m more than the imprints other people left
But change is around us, I feel it somehow
The time for the time to act is now
