Fiona Apple - The Child Is Gone Lyrics
Darling, give me your absence tonightTake the shade from the canvas and leave me the whiteLet me sink in the silence that echoes insideAnd dont bother leaving the light oncuz I suddenly feel like a different personFrom the roots of my soul come a gentle coercionAnd I ran my hand oer a strange inversionA vacancy that just did not belongThe child is goneHoney help me out of this messIm a stranger to myselfBut dont reach for me, Im too far awayI dont wanna talk cuz theres nothing left to saySo myDarling, give me your absence tonightTake all of your sympathy and leave it outsidecuz theres no kind of loving that can make this all rightIm trying to find a place I belongAnd I suddenly feel like a different personFrom the roots of my soul come a gentle coercionAnd I ran my hand over a strange inversionAs the darkness turns into the dawnThe child is goneThe child is gone
