lyrics

Dear daddy of mine,
I won't pretend that i've been diligent at finding the time
But i've been crossing out lines and tossing aside
The crumpled scraps of 6 months unsatisfied
With what passed between us

What passed between us

Is there something i'm supposed to say here
Some sign we're both awaiting to appear
Some way to crawl across the fear
But it's all uncharted here

And whenever we reach
Whenever we reach for each other
I feel there's a gulf leaps up between us
Whenever we reach

I woke up angry again
From dreams of abandonment
I tried to put all that back inside me
I tried to put all that back inside me

I didn't want to have to tell you
And i didn't want you to have to ask
And i knew you wouldn't dare
Even though we want so gently to remove that mask

I heard things that I never thought i'd hear from you
I put my head between my legs and i started spinning out
Dogs tore at my flesh in the battle to find fault
Straps bound my chest down upon your bed
And your ceiling opened up onto the starry vault

Of what passed between us

And whenever we reach
Whenever we reach for each other
I feel a gulf leaps up between us
Whenever we reach

Oh is there something i'm supposed to say here
Some sign we're both awaiting will appear
Some way to crawl across the fear
But it's all uncharted here
