[00:32.389]My life started slow
[00:35.209]In a town of idle minds
[00:38.769]Where daydreams filled the space
[00:41.049]Between our simple dramas
[00:45.928]And my mom was strange
[00:48.748]But she'd always liked to sew
[00:53.386]And my clothes smelled like
[00:55.646]The room I was born in
[00:59.836]And my dad calm
[01:01.666]Never used two words when one'd do
[01:06.116]And my brother's hands were mischief bent
[01:09.326]With no will to stop 'em
[01:13.946]And on the whole
[01:16.026]We lived simply and day-to-day
[01:18.606]Our fears were trivial
[01:21.836]They always died with every sunset
[01:24.585]
[01:54.998]When I was twelve
[01:57.238]My affliction came to light
[02:01.008]And I was told that some things I heard
[02:04.078]Were only there in my head
[02:08.328]But I couldn't tell
[02:10.928]Which were real and which were now
[02:14.408]And the question loomed over all I did
[02:17.838]Whether I could trust it
[02:23.616]And I guess over time
[02:26.076]It became too much
[02:28.166]And I was sent away
[02:29.816]At my mom's behest
[02:31.636]Cause she'd grown to fear me
[02:33.416]
[03:03.257]Now I live up north
[03:06.067]In the house for the broken heads
[03:09.537]And my father comes and visits me
[03:12.827]Whenever he can afford it
[03:16.807]Sometimes at night
[03:19.747]When the voices quiet down
[03:23.027]I find I hope that I am missed
[03:26.417]And that they haven't forgot me
