Glow - Sofia Talvik

I live on memories of a feeling

But my memory is so deceiving

Repeating promises I still believe in

Writing words for those who were leaving so long ago

So long ago

Trying hard to remember what I felt like

Those words that almost made you melt down

Those eyes that burned a hole right trough you

Those days when no one really knew you

And the pain

So sovereign

The scraps and fragments I can recall

The punches and needles are not enough at all

To make my mind glow

To make my mind glow

To make my mind glow

The way only fire bestows

The street lamps are my friends when I’m escaping

From myself and the world that they are shaping

My inner fire turned into a lightbulb

I shy the sun to tell myself that it’s still shining bright

My inner light

I try to live a life that I remember

Play a part that turned into a memory

I search for clues of greatness in my past life

Looking forward has never been my strong side

In the past

Is all that lasts

The scraps and fragments I can recall

The punches and needles are not enough at all

To make my mind glow

The way I used to

The scraps and fragments I try to grasp

The words and their meanings are running right through my hands

To make my mind glow

What do I need to do
