Nightingale’s Weave
Never wanted any more than
All you provided me
Fighting gravity
Father, rest your weary head
Dust in the shape of you,
Stares into shadow
But I can still see you stand strong,
Building a home
Tell me you know these hands,
Not hers, but mine
Father, be strong, you can let it go
You're holding onto this moment
I see you. You're trying to stay
But this is it, just quietly go,
Please
There is no more to say
Hard enough to you're gone
I'd wished for one more day, but
If this is it, then let it be now
Let it go. Please
Drift away
Never wanted any more than
You provided me
(You built a home for me)
Fighting gravity
(Let it go, let it be)
Father, rest your weary head
Dust in the shape of you,
Stares into shadow
But I can still see you stand,
Building a home
Tell me you know these hands,
Not hers, but mine
Father, be strong, you can
Hold onto this triumph,
Father
(Proudly) lay your head down
Your work is done
And I'm alright,
Please, father
Lay your head down
Deep ocean mirroring the stars
"(You gave me my heart)"
