Daughters - We Were Evergreen

I slept like a villain and woke up inside you

The years have all vanished and swallowed up the dark

Somebody had finished the book I was writing

The ending was wrong, just went back to the start

A carpet of women rippled with silence

They carving me with remainders from the fir

The lake where I swim in, I melted inside it

And sang to the limits, I’ve been there once before

Daughters will be sung

Daughters will be sung

Daughters will be sung

Daughters will be sung

We’re not gonna make it

We’re not gonna make it

We’re not gonna make it

We won’t make it in time

And 14 our daughters come 14 our hats off

Their car got the bottom and hear they thought still

They hold to another, an intricate circle

The more you sip out of, the more you have to fill

The barrel is leaking, the waters are seeping

The boulders away, it’s all uphill for now

We have to ignore this and fly to the surface

It’s too high above us, we won’t make it in time

Daughters will be sung

Daughters will be sung

Daughters will be sung

Daughters will be sung

We’re not gonna make it

We’re not gonna make it

We’re not gonna make it

We won’t make it in time

Daughters will be sung
