Lyrics:
[It’s a shock it’s the most, It, I still don’t really know how to describe how I miss it, or miss him or miss the house. Miss the life that I used to have miss the- Not having to wonder about-
Miss what we had before everything I miss not- having a safe-Having a place, Having a home]
do not deny us our agency
and don’t you dare try to test me
we’re trying to live
we’re trying to live
we’re trying to live
catholic schools built on sacred ground
she lit a match just to burn it down
not here to forgive
we’re trying to live
we’re trying to live
and when they tell you you’re nothing
tell you you’re nothing
they’re nothing at all
[ I miss being in the same place as you. It’s gone ]
when I was born you held my hand
[I miss being able to return,I always thought I could return to it, I wish I could return to it, I can’t return to it ]
upon the banks of the river grand
[I miss knowing I could call you]
I cannot sleep
[I don’t know if I miss you though]
I will not abide
[Who were you anyway?]
forced to witness
your ending life
and when they tell you you’re nothing
tell you you’re nothing
they’re nothing at all
[And for those who would look you in the eyes and deny all that is sacred
And for those who would kick you in the dirt and keep you under the heel of their boots
And for those - and for those who said you were nothing
They are nothing
They
They are nothing
They are nothing at all]
