‌different tongues

[Verse 1]

Say you love me in different tongues

Something magic

Something sapphic

Teach me politics with your hands and lips in a rhyme

[Chorus]

Hate your dad like

I hate mine

You romanticize your life

So it won’t hurt so bad when the hurt comes back again

[Verse 2]

Now you’re growing in different ways

Past the wall

Past the well

Past your mother’s eventual grave

Say you look like her

You don’t feel like her

[Chorus]

And it's always in the dark

When I feel like I’m most lost

But in the light again, every path it bends

To a place I’ve never been

I hope it won't hurt so bad when the hurt comes back again
