9 Heavensong by monkitwinz
the power of the picture out there in the past
you’ll never venture out there cause it’s too far back
onward toward asylum in our feeble grace in syllable survival
again the tail we chase
oooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh beware your heart little girl

i want that you should know me more than another thing
so i can take your hand child and heavensong we sang
isn’t that perspective isn’t that the truth how can i be respected
for walking in these shoes

don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me oh no
don’t you ever cry for me the memory of all we were and
all we’ll never be yeah the distance between what you need
and who i have to be i know it’s killing me

i feel i’m on the outside fumbling for the door while others struggle
to emerge into something more reaching for orion
from here it’s not that far to contemplate reaction
lay down some of these cards

don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me the memory of all we were and
all we’ll never be yeah the distance between what you need and who i have to be i know it’s killing me

believe i heard the stars talk to the universe
speaking other languages we had never heard
still you got the essence and i felt i move
you became the goddess i knelt down to you

don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me the memory of all we were and all we’ll never be yeah the distance between what you need and who i have to be i know it’s killing me

ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh beware your heart little girl
beware of your heart
ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh

don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me oh no don’t you ever cry for me the memory of all we were and all
we’ll never be yeah the distance between what you need and who i have to be i know it’s killing me

ooh ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh beware your heart little girl.
