Swing Lyrics by Dawn Golden

Still Life

2014

I woke up today with a darkness keeping me cold
Wild bird flocks guarding my home
I don’t know what to do
My eyes gone black from the stolen heart that i gave to you
Darkness keeps me all alone
Darkness eats away at the place that we’re calling our home
I went to bed on a starless night
I took the bus downtown in the morning light
And hung your ghost from the power lines
Your crooked mouth trying hard not to say goodbye, goodbye
Saying ‘i won’t ask you’, ‘i won’t ask you’
Darkness keeps me all alone
Darkness eats away at the place that we’re calling our home
While you’re dreaming i can barely breathe
I tell you that i love you but you don’t mean shit to me
It’s like we’re living in a fantasy
And i’m watching you try to pretend that you’re asleep
But i won’t wake you, i won’t wake you
I know a place where we can go tonight
Where we can trade all of our money for a homesick fade to white
You tell me that you never want to leave and
You hang your body from the balcony and swing
Saying please just let me, let me let go
Darkness keeps me all alone
Darkness eats away at the place that we’re calling our home
