Solitary Daughter

Lyrics

With the conviction of the woman you made me
 I find
 Blades of grass from the island you lent me
 I find
 On every floor
 ♪
 In every drawer
 Though I'm not an island I'm a body of water
 ♪
 Jeweled in the evening a solitary daughter
 ♪
 If picked at by noon
 ♪
 By midnight I'm ruined
 ♪
 Leave me alone to the books and the radio snow
 Leave me alone to the charcoal and the dancing shadow
 ♪
 If each blade of grass was meant here for me
 ♪
 Split apart, sliced, and wedged in for me
 ♪
 Who's gonna treat it?
 ♪
 I'm not going to need it
 
 Leave me alone to the books and the radio snow
 Leave me alone to the charcoal and the dancing shadow
 ♪
 I am a lake
 Don't need to be watered
 I am an ocean
 I don't need to barter
 I play with the moon
 My only friend
 It pushes it pulls me
 I don't pay rent
 I don't need the walls
 To bury my grave
 I don't need your company
 To feel saved
 I don't need the sunlight
 My curtains don't draw
 I don't need objects
 To keep or to pawn
 I don't want your pity
 Concern or your scorn
 I'm calm by my lonesome
 I feel right at home
 And when the wind blows
 I get to dancing
 My fun is the rhythm of air
 When it's prancing
 I play with the moon
 My only friend
 It pushes it pulls me
 I don't pay rent
 I don't need the walls
 To bury my grave
 I don't need your company
 To feel saved
 I don't need the sunlight
 My curtains don't draw
 I don't need objects
 To keep or to pawn
 I don't want your pity
 Concern or your scorn
 I'm calm by my lonesome
 I feel right at home
 And when the wind blows
 I get to dancing
 My fun is the rhythm of air
 When it's prancing
 Leave me alone to the books and the radio snow
 Leave me alone to the charcoal and the dancing shadow
