In Dictum (Retrospective Sessions) Lyrics by Wallis Bird

Retrospective Sessions

2020

Well I'll tell you the truth
As I only do my friend
I'll be living my youth
As I live till my end my friend
I've been battered and bruised
But it's only a few that have stayed or left
And that's nothing a hammer
A nail or my mind couldn't cure
But I've left people hang
On a stick or a word
If their grip grew tight
All the bottles the battles
The beds that I've shared they're all mine
But the more you hold on to me
The less you can have of me
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours to keep
Well I'll tell you the truth
If that's what you want my friend
Sometimes being a friend
Is not saying a word my friend
I've been shattered and shoved
And I shattered and shoved
But my mind is clear
And I've chosen my women, my men
And I've chosen my fears
But I've loved you with the marrow
That fills up my bones and I always will
If you are with me or not
All depends if you hold me too near
But the more you hold on to me
The less you can have of me
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours to keep
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours to keep
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours or me
There are devils inside
That I am not afraid to meet
There are devils outside
But I am not ashamed to be
But the more you hold on to me
Yeah the more you hold on to me
I will try not to leave
