about

a song for my mum, acoustic this time

lyrics

is it too late now to tell you that my shoes don't fit?
i've tried my best to wear them but I know I should just quit.
my bags are all packed and my hair's been brushed,
you've laid me out a sandwich but you know it won't get touched.

do you remember when you taught me how to swim?
you picked me up and just threw me right in.
and still you knew I'd bounce back up again,
so when you breathe out, breathe in again.

i like that you pretend you know exactly what to do,
as if this whole arrangement isn't just as new to you.

all those afternoons we'd drive around and sing,
those carseat concerts man, they'd fix up anything.
and i feel your words just like they're etched upon my skin,
when you breathe out, breathe in again.

the sunrise will remind us that the earth still spins,
despite the dissolution of all our worldly things.

do you remember when you left me there that day?
with my life in pieces i knew just what you would say.
that each beginning always comes out of an end, so
when you breathe out, breathe in again.
