Daughter

Candles



Lyrics

That boy,
Take me away
Into the night

Out of the hum of
The street lights
And into a forest

I'll do whatever you
Say to me in the dark
Scared I'll be torn apart
By a wolf in mask of a
Familiar name on a
Birthday card

Blow out all the candles
Blow out all the candles

"you're too old to be so shy"
He says to me so I stay the night

Just a young heart confusing
My mind, but we're both in
Silence

Wide eyed
Both in silence
Wide eyed
Like we're in a crime scene

Well I have brittle bones
It seems, I bite my tongue
And I torch my dreams

Have a little voice to speak
With and mind of thoughts and
Secrecy

Things cannot be reversed, we
Learn from the times that we are
Cursed


Things cannot be reversed, we
Learn from the ones we fear the worst
And learn from the ones we hate the most

...How

Blow out all the candles
Blow out all the candles

"you're too old to be so shy"
He says to me so I stay the night

Just a young heart confusing
My mind, but we're both in
Silence

Wide eyed
Both in silence
Wide eyed...

Cause we both know
I'll never be your lover
I only bring the heat

Company under covers
Filling space in your sheets

Cause we both know
I'll never be your lover
I only bring the heat

Company under covers
Filling space in your sheets

So please just...
Blow out all the candles
Blow out all the candles

"you're too old to be so shy"
He says to me so I stay the night

It's just a young heart confusing
My mind, but we're both in
Silence

Wide eyed
Both in silence
Wide eyed
Like we're in a crime scene
