lirik lagu valley james - playing dead
first time i thought of dying, i was seven years old
my mother’s hands pressed against my mouth
her rage was silent
no one ever knew that we were living in a burning house
cleaned up the messes in our matching sunday dresses
painting the roses red
climb through a mirror, just trying to be near her
living was playing dead
just a girl trying to be a woman
mama’s shoes and her pearl necklace
but i would sin for a taste of freedom
this pretty bird is gonna fly the nest
where do beggars go when they die?
’cause i ought to buy my ticket tonight
unfold these dusty wings and climb
where the broken songbirds fly
where the broken songbirds fly
ooh, ooh, ooh
the moment i met him, i knew he’d be mine
the sound of his fury felt like home
when his hands were around my throat, i wasn’t surprised
i knew better than to tell a single soul
cleaned up the messes and his handprints from my dresses
crawl back inside of my head
watch like a movie as if i never knew me
living was playing dead
just a girl trying to be a woman
mama’s shoes and her pearl necklace
but i would sin for a taste of freedom
this pretty bird is gonna fly the nest
where do beggars go when they die?
’cause i ought to buy my ticket tonight
unfold these dusty wings and climb
where the broken songbirds fly
where the broken songbirds fly
where do the songbirds fly?
where do the songbirds fly?
where do the songbirds fly?
where do the songbirds fly?
where do the songbirds fly?
where do the songbirds fly?
where do the songbirds fly?
