Still A Child

by Sufjan stevens

The day I was born, your shadow fell across my mother`s breast
When I opened my eyes, you coloured my mind
Every move I make, is by your desire
Every move I make, is by your hand only
Now I`m still a child, but I`m closer to death
Cover me in roses, gently touch me while I sleep
When I dream I`ll dream of drowning in a pool of scented blood
Now I`m still a child, but I`m closer to death
You said take this it`s yours so I`ve kept it locked away
Now you`re curled up beneath tme in a pool of your own blood
Now I`m still a child, but I`m closer to death
