Sola

She has stopped time in this room
She's hung on every strand of my hair
And told me the tale of a fierce wolf
That kept us from being little kids
She cut my breath just with her voice
Reciting my name in verse
And I don't know if I answer her lament

Today I went to find her and I found her
Alone
Drinking the sea in a dive bar
Alone
Flying behind a swallow

And I don't know if it's my fault
That she doesn't want to be by my side
I only know she won't come after me
And she'll stay alone, damn it
She has carved a space in my heart
She's taken every inch of my body
She was my umbrella in the downpour
She waited for me when everyone else ran away
She was my flag when I wasn't myself
She followed me with what she had on
And I don't know if I answer her lament

Because I went to find her and I found her
Alone
Like the Virgin of the Full Moon
Alone
A mermaid washed up on the sand

And I don't know if it's my fault
That she doesn't want to be by my side
I only know she won't come after me
And she'll stay alone, damn it
She's not around here anymore
Because I didn't see
That she felt alone in front of me
She always looked at the clock
Wouldn't let it run
In private, she told me she wanted to leave
And I didn't understand her
That when she stopped being there for me
She, she was alone

Drinking the sea in a dive bar
Alone
Flying behind a swallow
Alone
Like the Virgin of the Full Moon
Alone

A mermaid washed up on the sand
And I don't know (I don't know) if it's (if it's) my fault
That she doesn't want to be by my side
I only know (I only know) she won't come (she won't come) after me
And she'll stay (she'll stay) alone, damn it
She's not around here anymore
Because I didn't see
That she felt alone in front of me
She always looked at the clock
Wouldn't let it run
In private, she told me she wanted to leave
And I didn't understand her
That when she stopped being there for me
She, she was alone.
