Thea Gilmore - Last lyrics
[Thea Gilmore - Last lyrics]
There is a last time you hold
Your child one day you'll put
Him down and never lift him again
Just as there is a
Last kiss, a last breath, a
Final step, a last fuck, a
Last word it is not for us to know our lasts
Mostly it's better to be blind
To let the road bend where it will it is not
Weakness it is survival
I survived you my lasts were long and
Painful i know nothing of yours
But, I hope yours hurt too
If I'm honest do you
Remember the last time you turned the
Key in this front door? The
Last time you ran a bath?
Or heard your children laugh
In the rooms I built?
The architecture of love?
Thе last time you sent a quiet tеxt in
That space of yours in the clouds?
The last time you told me I was "wrong"?
Or "angry"?
The last time you turned the key?
Now I will stitch each tiny
Sequinned feather this bird
Released i am finished being
Tamed i am animal
I have grown two hearts inside
My belly they are my
Purpose and my end i will show them how to
Love i will show them curve
And grace and fire i
Will show them what a woman is made of
I have grown two hearts inside my belly
I know a phoenix from a sparrow
This will be the last time I write
To you i have wings to sew
Your child one day you'll put
Him down and never lift him again
Just as there is a
Last kiss, a last breath, a
Final step, a last fuck, a
Last word it is not for us to know our lasts
Mostly it's better to be blind
To let the road bend where it will it is not
Weakness it is survival
I survived you my lasts were long and
Painful i know nothing of yours
But, I hope yours hurt too
If I'm honest do you
Remember the last time you turned the
Key in this front door? The
Last time you ran a bath?
Or heard your children laugh
In the rooms I built?
The architecture of love?
Thе last time you sent a quiet tеxt in
That space of yours in the clouds?
The last time you told me I was "wrong"?
Or "angry"?
The last time you turned the key?
Now I will stitch each tiny
Sequinned feather this bird
Released i am finished being
Tamed i am animal
I have grown two hearts inside
My belly they are my
Purpose and my end i will show them how to
Love i will show them curve
And grace and fire i
Will show them what a woman is made of
I have grown two hearts inside my belly
I know a phoenix from a sparrow
This will be the last time I write
To you i have wings to sew
