lyrics

My words are kept in a basket that is hanging from the ceiling,
too high for me to reach them and I'm left with just these feelings
and I can't even show you one
On this day a year ago, I put on a ring,
I said I will be the wedding singer and I will learn to sing
So we went down to the river and there I gave myself

Things of importance often happen near to water
And I don't know what I can offer now I am the only daughter
And everywhere I go I wonder why she isn't there
Everywhere I go I try to find her in the air

On this date, 228 years ago
Englishman spilled on to land with pistols in their hands
And their cruelty showed no mercy
and i f you listen you can still hear the sound of genocide and massacre
no money can buy the pride you think you are afforded
and the body of a man was found this morning in the river
when I heard I felt a shiver down my spine
and there's nothing I can do, but how strange how nothing ever really changes over time
And saying sorry doesn't bring people back from the dead
and soon apologies become the ground on which you tread,
but I'm still sorry for your loss
and I'm still sorry for mine

Things of importance often happen near to water
And I don't know what I can offer now I am the only daughter
And everywhere I go I wonder why she isn't there
Everywhere I go I try to find her in the air

My daddy said to throw away your maps for you wont need them out at sea,
but I'm so lost already, you'll need them if you ever want to find me
Sit down try to write a song
but the words are in the basket
Tell myself it wont be long till I belong somewhere other than my casket
and I tell myself almost every night
I need a new feeling to describe
but this feeling's stuck in me,
like a hungry parasite
and there ain't no cure for this kind of parasite
this feeling's stuck in me,
like a hungry parasite
