lyrics

I hope my name's the first drop
on the tip of your tongue
that you're alone and it reminds
you what was because the words
I never said to you slowly lose their weight
I spent too many days in Monowi
and I finally move away
when you hear my voice again
I won't be fragile in my bed
you still won't be around to tell me
what could be the matter with my head
or where you were when I needed someone
to tell me I was only hours from the sun
during the longest night when I
almost let go
waiting for the past to call
so I won't feel a thing at all
used to take my knees out from me
used to take my feet out from the ground
then you would spell my flaws
between your teeth to break my jaw
used to take my feet out from me
used to be my one and only Monowi
I hope my name's the first drop
on the tip of your tongue
that you're alone and it reminds
you what was because the words
I never said to you slowly lose their weight
I spent too many days in Monowi
and I finally move away
