Invincibility

Nobody came to kiss you goodbye

Goodbye, the same if it's yours or mine

A time in vain is a slim denial

When everybody knows how to smile

Let go, I hear you in my own hands

I can, you know, I don't know I can

Forever crying, the crows go by

And everybody knows how to cry

Again, again, again, every time

I know you know I don't know my mind

I do forget I don't understand

But you don't get to know who I am

Because you think you already know

Because you think you can tell me so

"I wish you never told me your name"

They say as if I had told you mine

And hold a star in their childish eyes

"I know you are, but what am I?"

"You're bold to let your breath go," says I

When everybody knows how to sigh

You can make a sound at me, all the same

Sing all you like it won't be my name

No holy claim ever made me whole

But your name remains a song in my soul

I came to give away everything

I came to see you, I came to sing

Smooth as a moon, as cold as one too

I don't know how to reach out to you

Let go, I hear you in my own hands

I am, you know, I don't know I am
