Letra de One On The Ground

She's got one foot on the ground
That's one more than before her day
Just crawl back and swallow your pride
Like so many pills before this
Girl, speak, you must know something more
I know that you must feel something
For your presence is coming chilly
Your motions sadly sober now
Please let yourself cry
Prove your miserable existence
And I will believe
I will confess my sin
You must know something more
I know that you must feel something
For your presence is coming chilly
Your motions sadly sober now
Choking on the manipulation of another
Roaming on the plane of no bother
The child spoke the truth
"I cannot believe that I'm dead"
So why bother us now?
You knew everything
Except the price of your haste
So hold your breath to hold his hand
I'm here, so where are you?
Everything was lost overhead
Above the mantle in the depression
Not a single memory
To burn in this betrayal
At least nothing that I can reach
I am still standing, still staring
At your child rolling, playing
In your husband's stain, would you make
A token for your son of what's left
Of his teeth pried from the plaster?
If he found the weakness
To surrender to pain, can you
Find the strength to search for him?
I am still here, so where are you?
I am still here and I need you
[?]
The child spoke the truth
"I cannot believe that I'm dead"
So why bother us now?
You knew everything except the price
Of your haste
She's got one foot on the ground
That's one more than before her day
Just crawl back and swallow your pride
Like so many pills before this
Girl, speak, you must know something more
I know that you must feel something more
