ida grey - 10,000 blows كلمات أغنية

you’ve been patient
you’ve been darling
you’ve been lovely
you’ve been doing so well
now you’re crying
in my car and
you no longer
can sedate yourself
and you ask me
voice all shaky
face like iron
scared you sound like your dad
if i lead the horse to water
ask politely
what do i do when
it tries to k!ll me
tries to drown me
tries to throw me
in the river i said
you’re not asking
the right question
’cause there’s people
getting hurt either way
i don’t think that
people realize
all the reasons
that they do what they do
we are standing
at the threshold
of a world that
is entirely new
ten thousand blows
ten thousand blows
when it comes, you can’t run
you can’t run

i’ve been trying
not to look at
my reflection
at least not for too long
not for hatred or disgust that
only comes when i don’t have my makeup on
but there’s something
something deeper
always present
inches under my skin
see it hiding
spilling out when
when there’s something to lose
and something to win

oh, ten thousand blows
ten thousand blows
when it comes
you can’t run, you can’t run

run like water
flow like water
move like water
do the best that you can
let it teach you
let it show you
how to gather
how to break on land
in existence
there is dukkha
there is someone who points a gun at your head
but you love it
you love the violence
you can’t wait to see what happens next

oh, ten thousand blows
ten thousand blows
when it comes
you can’t run, you can’t run
