Lyrics for Feral Children
Feral children in the pouring rain For every constellation she might navigate again Each and ever line she might wear in time Baptized by the rain and the euphoria of pain Could kiss or punch, sober or drunk Lifted way high or taken down deep Into blue space where the rules change Feral children know how to survive Feral children can fight for their lives Feral children hear what no one knows There's no words for the infinity of ghosts The infinity of ghosts Hold on, hold on Holding back the sea seems unlikely She'll tell you I can forgive you But I can't forget you And you won't forget me Hold on, hold on Hoding back the fire seems to flame desire Try parting the water crossing the sea She'll tell you I can forgive you But I can't forget you And you won't forget me
