Kneejerk - Sigh lyrics

And so at last i can look Peeking through wired And crisscross fingers At these marks that we made Knife blade deep in the wood We thought we'd marked our names To last through all the years A record of our aspirations We'd come back and look When our joints didn't work I never used to understand why my father sighed These plants smile at me now I wish i could say i was old and wise But bark has started to heal Fading like breath on a window I never used to understand why my father sighed His once-a-year friends waved away... I used to know the way back home So i'd wander for days I left a trail so i could find myself But it faded away And so i tell you this with an honesty I'm not sure i understand I'm paralyzed and terrified as i watch These friends slip through my hands And now i think i understand why my father sighed: We tried so hard but we keep feeling dead inside I used to know the way back home but the memory has gone And when i tell you i'll be home again it's because i'm sure where i belong
