The Secret Odes

Lyrics

I'm the supernova kid
Exploding into dust for kicks
I'm a scarred general
Refusing to retreat
I'm a bronzed heartbreaker
Tangled in your bedsheets
I'm a drunk on a bender
Convinced I can do anything

We're fathers and mothers and sons and daughters
We don't recognize

i'm a broken pastor
Abandoned by meaning
I'm a defeated warrior
Picking myself up off the floor
I'm a worried parent
Trying to stay afloat
I'm a troubled teenager
Lost in laughter

We're fathers and mothers and sons and daughters
We don't recognize

The mirror shatters just when you think you know what's there
Put the pieces back together
Everyone is scared
