Mother's Milk Breath
Me and you, kid home alone
Learning how to live
You for the first time
And me well… it's been a long time coming
The hardest part is getting started
One foot falls in front of the other
One word spills out after another
Now you try
I'm long winter sick baby stir-crazy
And there are days when doubts arise
They simmer and subside
For you, little Miss mother's Milk Breath
When the Sun gets tired i'll hang the moon
And soon, little Miss limitless Interest
When the Moon catches fire
We'll start a new day of school
Do you know where your mouth is?
Or how to tell a lie?
Do you know what desire is?
You will in time
Me and you, kid learning how to live
With these tired eyes and thin skin
