Can I Go Back To Yesterday?

I am drifting through the world and

I am getting older.

I woke up being twenty today

But when I fell asleep last night I was only fifteen.

And you held me in your arms

And told me that things get better

That this is not permanent.

And you were right.

I woke up today with nothing

But yesterday I had you.

Did you know?

Did you know it was temporary?

Yesterday I was your daughter

And today I'm a whisper in the wind

Calling out to you from the grave

Calling from the womb

Won't you listen out for me?

◄ Say Good Night
