Jessica Perez - The Return lyrics

rate me

Do you think you know me?

Well maybe you do

So youve heard my name before

And you wonder why I look familiar

Such a striking resemblance to an old photograph on the mantle

Could it be that Im conjuring up a memory that you try to hide in the dark?

Oh! I was the one with the pennies on my eyes

I was the one in the pine box that they lowered into the ground

But not now~

But not now~

Oh, the terror of what youve done is trembling on all of your loose ends

Breathing softly and whispering to keep the world from finding out

Oh! I was the one with the pennies on my eyes

I was the one in the pine box that they lowered into the ground

But not now~

Now Im the one with the lightning in my eyes

I am the one with the stars in my hair, the fury in my fist, the life inside my lungs

So watch out~

The moon it rises higher

Staring at the fire, we look up for our answers

Daring not to ask the questions that lay in our hearts

I was the one with the pennies on my eyes

I was the one in the pine box that they lowered into the ground

But not now~

Now Im the one with the lightning in my eyes

Im the one with the stars in my hair, Im the one thats alive!
