breathe it out, close your eyes
it's finally taken over
silence falls in the room
i wanna keep this moment like bottle of perfume
cause i'm terrified that those wrinkles by your eyes
will become blurry lines
in a couple of years from now
when i'm thinking of your face
and suddenly it fades from me
fifteen good years
we couldn't be much closer
but if you're gone
and i'm here
am i just somebody's daughter
now
your heart is slowing down
like a train pulling in to the station
i'm about this helpless as
those empty bottles of medication
and there's come a time
when i'm dressed in white
and the space by my side
should've been filled by you
but i'll be thinking of your face
and hoping that you're thinking of me, too
fifteen good years
we couldn't be much closer
but if you're gone
and i'm here
am i just somebody's daughter
now
you gave me life
guess i thought you'd be immortal
those Brisbane lights
they're shining for you
your lungs are black,
your body's fading grey
but everything is blinding me
now
fifteen good years
we couldn't be much closer
but if you're gone
and i'm here
am i just somebody's daughter
fifteen good years
those Brisbane lights
they're shining for you
but if you're gone
and i'm here
am i just somebody's daughter
now
