[Walk Straight North: Track One] --------- Dedicated to my mother, that raging tempest and unwavering lighthouse. Every virtue of yours I have in myself, as well as every vice. Despite everything we scream at each other, my heart burns and beats for you- you taught me how to walk straight north. ------------ Lyrics: I broke a painting when I was younger Knocked it off the living room wall My mother shook her head and sighed Sweeping broken pieces out of sight A boy broke his arm and at recess He asked me to stay with him When we were older I couldn't trust his love And so I broke his heart to keep me safe Did I do it to myself, or was it taught by someone else? Does it really matter? The outcome is the same Teach me again, another song, pick up each piece, learn to move on Hold me when I fall because I will I thought to break down and cry was to be weak So I taught myself the art of apathy Until I watched my mother cry cause I didn't care I realized my brokenness was the cause Did I do it to myself, or was it taught by someone else? Does it really matter? The outcome is the same Teach me again, another song, pick up each piece, learn to move on Hold me when I fall because I will Can it really be so simple, yet so hard Reaching for a reason and then You told me to breathe easy for a while Please hold fast and don't move on Teach me how to feel happy again I never meant to leave them behind Don't console me, I accept the blame Did I do it to myself, or was it taught by someone else? Does it really matter? The outcome is the same Teach me again, another song, pick up each piece, learn to move on Hold me when I fall because I will I know I will, I know I will.
