Testi

[Verse 1]
In New York Palace from the forty-sixth floor
I spied a dragonfly
The size of my fist like the one I'd drawn
Carefully as a child
Pinned high in pride of place
On the classroom wall
But the lost byes of angry youth
Burned down my school
[Verse 2]
And father caught flames of hell
Filed in his archive
I never saw logic behind
Collecting reasons why
[Verse 3]
Mother's wearing all silk dresses
Hiding her pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone stole her time
[Verse 4]
The bell brings a stranger
Memories divide
Ever searching snapshots of our lives
When are we truly safe from ourselves
And the ones we hold too close?
Oh, how have I not lost my innocence?
[Verse 5]
Mother's wearing all silk dresses
Hiding her pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone stole her time
[Verse 6]
As actors on the wrong stage
With imperfect lines
My dragonfly beats it's wings
In vain, so high
I hope I don't lose my lines
[Verse 7]
Mother's wearing auburn dresses
Hides those pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone stole her time
[Verse 8]
Oh, mother wears all silk dresses
And hides those pretty eyes
Always late to pick me up
From the moment she arrives
I look back to see that someone stole her time
