lyrics

I can dig it out
if you want me to
with my dirty fingers
will you take the bet?
I want to linger
I do it all for you
I want a little bit more
it ain't over yet
if I hold back
until you let them win
am I the better man?
no one cares
or just a cynic
so just bite your lip
with a slippery grin
and do the dare

oh go home
show me where your love went
baby you’re too old to try and fake it now
show me where your love went
gotta let go of what’s weighing you down.
show me where your love went

I wake up
is it morning?
with lines on my face
it’s too early
so hard I scrub
where did we go last night
why must they stay?
in our dreams
in the tub
now I’m on my feet
twice a day
and every step I take
just a mermaid
wish for my wings
alone in a tank
how they’d never break

oh tiny waves
show me where your love went
whisk me away from the pain
show me where your love went
my remains fading in space
show me where your love went

oh
and if I follow in the footsteps of my mother
time goes by
will I arrive?
can’t stop it
someday
no matter how hard I try
but if I’m walking the roads
time goes by
that my fathers did
can’t stop it
will I forget why I came?
no matter how hard I try
time goes by
give em no reason to stay
can’t stop it
no matter how hard I try
time goes by

if we never fight
is there such a thing?
will we get it right?
to be a human being
will we let it go?
to love someone else
give over control
beyond the self

oh take me home
show me where your love is
promise to drive slow down the long river road
show me where your love is
I let the wind blow in through my open window
show me where your love is
and in this moment I awoke

Scinnlæce means "witch", or "veiled healer", in Old English.
