the weight she fell under - parenthetical girls lyrics

Loading...

when they pulled you from the tracks
your body splayed and split
your chest flushed bright
as it was in life

when they pulled you from the tracks
mindful of your separate halves
your face relaxed
lying flat upon your back

your body blushed beneath such crushing weight
stolen in your awkward stage
that you never would escape

the same stain that decorates your chest and face
with a scarlet mark of shame
when you’d stutter out of place

and when they pulled you from the tracks
your eyes gone milky white
strangely alive

strange
this would come at the same age
that your mother took his name
and labor pains
would collapse her fragile frame

the city lights reflected off the bay
from the streets where you were raised
and taught your place
by those stifling younger days
now that’s all been washed away
with the color from your face
tracks traced in paint
from a woman raised to wait

and when they pulled you from the tracks
your body splayed and split
your chest flushed bright
as it was in life
when they pulled you from the tracks
mindful of your separate halves
your face relaxed
lying flat upon your back
