Fences - The Same Tattoos lyrics
[Fences - The Same Tattoos lyrics]
And I was born in the same town as you
Hell I even think we have the same tattoos
My mother hates it
When I smile and she sees you
Coming through me
Like a sun shines through thin glass
It's not like you were
Really gone, gone, gone, gone
But, you were and I never felt love
My uncle gave me
On the day that I turned thirteen
A black box that said
"Gillette" rusted and scratched
And it was full of memories and memorabilia
And a necklace with a saint I wore in class
It's not like you were
Really gone, gone, gone, gone
But, you were and I never felt love
Hell I even think we have the same tattoos
My mother hates it
When I smile and she sees you
Coming through me
Like a sun shines through thin glass
It's not like you were
Really gone, gone, gone, gone
But, you were and I never felt love
My uncle gave me
On the day that I turned thirteen
A black box that said
"Gillette" rusted and scratched
And it was full of memories and memorabilia
And a necklace with a saint I wore in class
It's not like you were
Really gone, gone, gone, gone
But, you were and I never felt love
