Eleonora - Laura Stevenson

Call me from the capital, only together as you try to come off

When you need me, it’s half a world to reach me

Selfishly your permanent drain

I am trapped inside the places we’re the same

I know that it’s trying and you’re tired of hearing it

But nobody else has time to listen how to

So can you please do it for me?

This’ll be the last that I ask, I promise

Eleonora, it’s fine you know, I never wanted to ignore ya

Sleeping on hard wood is harder when you’re hardly any good

And every sound hits so much louder than it should

Where’s the one who’ll make the ringing go away?

You’re built of much sturdier stuff

While I’m piled high and loose and could use some luck

I know you’ve been dying to move forward

But no one can make it go away the way you do

So can you please do it for me?

My monument is my failure to answer

Eleonora, it’s fine you know, I never wanted to ignore ya

Oh, won’t you kindly pick the pins and needles off me, Eleonora?
