the fifteenth day - me like bees lyrics
[verse 1]
i was a son and i still am
i wanna tell you that
i gave up more than i intended
but i won’t give no more
[bridge]
oh, they asked for it and i said no
oh, as convinced a man you’ll know
[chorus 1]
was i still yours? how could i know
when my fiber first began to unwind?
and when i couldn’t pretend that the “if”‘s and “then”‘s
weren’t taking quarter in the back of my mind
well, from out so far they seem to raise the bar
so, what now? how many days till i get back to par?
till the ghost gives up (3x)
[bridge]
[chorus 2]
was i still yours? i didn’t know
in my asking like an orphan for more
on my car ride up, on the fifteenth day
i made my asking with my head on the door
i offered my insides, up into the skies
unto an after fact altar where no offering is wise
where i expected that which would not be done
where i missed the meaning of what it was to be a son
where i asked amiss in a selfishness
where i saw in my hand a snake what was really a fish
where the measure i held spread a little too thin
i tried to bulk it up with talk, but it was all talk to begin with
[verse 2]
so, the morning brought a brand new fall of man
and i woke a son asunder just trying to measure up again
till the ghost gives up (6x)
oh, i know
it wasn’t easy for me, it wasn’t easy for you to let go (2x)
so let go
i was a son and i still am
i wanna tell you that
