about

From the upcoming album "Prodigal", to be released later this year.

lyrics

I saw you sitting by yourself in the street, it was the
first time a single soul had seen you in weeks
you were staring at the sky with your hand on your heart
your skin was snow white, but your eyes were so dark

you said you can't go back there again
and you can't go on without him

I heard you screaming through the walls last night
it seems you took a season trying to set things right
but still you close the curtains and draw the blinds
then lie awake cursing every thought in your mind

because you can't go back there again
and you can't go on without him

then one day you crack the door
squinting hard against the sun
throw yourself upon the earth
don't sleep until your toil is done
soaked in blood and afterbirth
screaming for your mother's arms
throw yourself upon the earth
know that it'll bring you home
know that it'll break your heart
just let it pull you clear apart

I still remember how you looked last March
when they found that note he left in Overland Park
and you've always known you can't go back to the start
and so you live inside that moment when it all fell apart
cause you can’t

and you can't go back there again
and you can't go on without him
