lirik lagu mother tongue – liana flores
the street beneath my feet is paved with rows of gold
or so i’m told
the sky before my eyes is never colour grey
or so they say
i guess i’ve known the truth since i was pretty young
that i never knew my mother’s mother tongue
i’ll fake all of my words till they point out to me
the crowds of purple orchid flowers
i can’t see
i’ll play along with borrowed chords until they shine
they’re still not mine
i’ll breathe all of these postcards in until they land
still second*hand
she gave me half my bones and made me one my lungs
but the same cold air is filling both of them
meanwhile a crocodile points out whats left behind
the filed of yellow daffodils you tried
but couldn’t find
i’ve known since i was pretty young i
never knew my mother’s mother tongue
i’m putting on a smile made out of plasticine
and looking clean
