Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The faces I see
They look like she
I need to leave so I can breathe
[Verse 2]
Tears are a language
I speak well
Better than my own
Alone without her
[PreChorus]
Where do they go?
The gifts that aren't well received
Forgotten as soon as they're given
Myself, I've forgotten a few
[Chorus]
Ancestors too young
They become
Ancestors too young
Ancestors too young
Where do they go?
[Verse 3]
Cut me into pieces
You can leave the flowers by the bed
Leave the light on
It's just no one cared until she was dead
Don't make sense at all
Why some people rise just to fall
Brought to my knees
'Cause I'm just not sure how to grieve
[PreChorus]
Where do they go?
And if I go too
Will I see the ones we've lost?
Life's over before it's begun
[Chorus]
Ancestors too young
They become
Ancestors too young
Ancestors too young
Where do they go?
