Lyrics
It's strange this one thing that comforts me
No one did this to us, no one did this to me there's no revenge to make no enemies to shake it just is and I can be at peace with that despite you being so young to go forever battling the throws of depression your mothers death and sisters tragic end then to my father walking out of the family all you had left in common was secret mountains of debt and maybe that's prepared me to cope with your death as the idea of family died years ago you stopped being my mother more like a person I know too well all the family ties have changed they may still look the same the love remains but the ends have frayed and the shine has washed off the meanings have all been replaced with coping mechanisms the structured turning of phrases the overbearing background pressing against your painted smile the same one for every bad card delt I can see cracking now with the pain
You were a tragedy
You were a masterpiece
I will think of you
In caithness summer breeze
Against my cheek
Brushing through my hair
Just a soft reminder that you're always there
We'll all die to find we're all too late
We'll all die what gives it has to take
We'll all die our body's start to break
When we die we get set free from the weight
