Footsteps Like Heartbeats

from Talking To My Younger Self EP by Ian Taylor

/

lyrics

Mother she broke my heart and now I'm getting dizzy.
Mother will it always hurt? Do you think she might miss me?
Should I go looking for something that isn't there?
Mother this isn't fair. Mother this isn't fair.
I only took a little bit, just enough to get me by.
Mother I know that wasn't right. Mother I know it isn't right.

Father my body is aching and my eyes are getting heavy.
Father my heart is weary, but I know that you aren't listening.
And my world is spinning in circles way too fast.
Father you're an ass. Father you're an ass.
When the day turns black I sink into my knees.
Father you're a coward like me. Father you're a coward like me.

I broke the silence with a breath
footsteps like heartbeats down the hall.
Crooked mirrors to reflect
nothing is important at all.
Nothing is important at all.
I only took a little bit just to get me by.
Mother I know that wasn't right.
Mother I know it isn't right.
Mother I know it isn't right.
