Childhood Tapes
Stars are falling that's a way to die
Enemies crawling back in my life
Strangling the pressure, elevating through my highs
Ring around the Rosie pockets full of knives
Vulnerability when the terror strikes
And tolerance is limited to the suicide
Heart breaks faster than the moving light
Keep it too close, keep it held so tight
We don't really know why we want to die
Me, and my baby cry
I had no choice in life
Why do I want to die?
Why did I waste my time?
I wish I did refrain
My stars will fall again
To live a better life
Rewind this old cassette again
The memories in my nursery room
My parents filmed me since the day I cooed
What was the word I first said to you?
They kept all the art, all the things I drew
These tapes reach end when we all become blue
Happiness dies down, and the end comes through
All these photos glued right in a book
It wasn't just a story of my childhood
A book about my family, we're misunderstood
Heart breaks faster than the moving light
Keep it too close, keep it held so tight
We don't really know why we want to die
Me, and my baby cry
I had no choice in life
Why do I want to die?
Why did I waste my time?
I wish I did refrain
My stars will fall again
To live a better life
Rewind this old cassette again
This is the beginning
A beginning, and an end
A beginning of the terrors
That lie behind this door
Enemies crawling back in my life
Strangling the pressure, elevating through my highs
Ring around the Rosie pockets full of knives
Vulnerability when the terror strikes
And tolerance is limited to the suicide
Heart breaks faster than the moving light
Keep it too close, keep it held so tight
We don't really know why we want to die
Me, and my baby cry
I had no choice in life
Why do I want to die?
Why did I waste my time?
I wish I did refrain
My stars will fall again
To live a better life
Rewind this old cassette again
The memories in my nursery room
My parents filmed me since the day I cooed
What was the word I first said to you?
They kept all the art, all the things I drew
These tapes reach end when we all become blue
Happiness dies down, and the end comes through
All these photos glued right in a book
It wasn't just a story of my childhood
A book about my family, we're misunderstood
Heart breaks faster than the moving light
Keep it too close, keep it held so tight
We don't really know why we want to die
Me, and my baby cry
I had no choice in life
Why do I want to die?
Why did I waste my time?
I wish I did refrain
My stars will fall again
To live a better life
Rewind this old cassette again
This is the beginning
A beginning, and an end
A beginning of the terrors
That lie behind this door
