Chan Barraza Benicki - Younger, Smaller lyrics

My fingers started aching when the sky turned My teeth and my knees dull, oh how my stars burned You left my window wide open, and it's cold Your voice cracked in my ears as you watched me unfold I am so young, now And sometimes I get scared I feel so small, here So lay me down, lay with me My guilt follows me and I swallow it down The ghosts in my head beat in every old town My words echo slowly as I begin “Forgive me, forgive me, for I have sinned” And lord knows I'm still A child I feel so small, here So lay me down, lay with me And when I struck I know you hurt like hell I carry your heart And I'm far from well And when I struck I hope you felt my eyes Hear me, hear me now I beg for your light Let me take back my hands Fill them with my love They never belonged in anger You should know
