lyrics

I wear your hair
And eyes
Sometimes I hear your laugh in mine

Look at your teeth
Your smile
All while your voice escapes my open mouth

I see your love
And all your longing
What belongs to me and how much is yours?

I've got your strength
Your care
I very nearly lived your life as mine

I want your love, but not your longing
Is it wrong that I'm needing more?

I'm learning
How to talk, how to touch, how to be in love
So meet me in the middle,
Is that not what you made me for?

No, no
Let me grow from
What you've shown me
You made the most skillful teacher I've ever known

Never hide away your fault lines,
Draw them out
Write their names in silver ink,
Lay your struggles down

Gift to me your broken blueprint,
I'll be fine
I'll refine your design
Bolder, line by line

I'll keep what's strong
I'll keep courageous
Turn that longing into trial

I'm learning
How to take, how to break, how to make a life
I'll show you if you'll welcome
How I differ from you now

Listen
Watch me grow from
All you've shown me,
Made me the most skillful teacher I've ever known
