if i told you all my secrets Songtext
von ghostdaughter

50 milligrams per milliliter, I can′t get away
And even if I could, i think I'd stay
I remember what they told me back when I had learned to walk
Said, "darling, whatever you do, don′t walk away"
And I was born in a place where people go to die
And I wrapped the cord around my neck, attempted suicide
I just couldn't breathe, they fed my tiny body candelight
And said, "baby, happy birthday"


You can try to stay alive or just get drunk and learn to dance
You can shiver through the night and, in the morning, learn to stand
And if I told you all my secrets, I would turn back into sand
Like everything, like everyone, like what I am

I wonder if my name has crossed your daughter's lips
Do you forget to draw the curtains?
So the moonlight meets your hips again
And I can′t help but reminisce and wish I did it right
Was I always bound like this? Could I have fixed it if I tried?

You can sleep inside a memory and wake up all alone
You can kill all of the pain or you can make yourself its home
And I wouldn′t know what to say this time if you picked up the phone
I just called to hear your voice and I'm so sorry
