Daughters

We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away
Where everything feels okay
Guess we can call this a holiday
We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away

I can see the sadness in her eyes
Seen it--the same as my mother’s, they’re cold as december
We talk in stares--brief as it may seem
But i hear them, her silent screams
Overjoyed because of no reason
You’re inconsistent love like the season
Here in Jakarta where we don’t see each other
Invisible— you don’t need to bother

We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away
Where everything feels okay
Guess we can call this a holiday
Feelings are too honest to be said out loud
We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away

Maybe I don’t want to say it
Or even having to admit it
We were both raised by single moms
But lucky you, you have your dearly older brother
To ask for advice and guidance too
I am the son of two guns in love
Brainless hearts, with a heartless son

We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away
Where everything feels okay
Guess we can call this a holiday
Feelings are too honest to be said out loud
We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away

Scared to be alone
Someday this will be gone, darling
You’ll learn to love again

"Maybe I don’t wanna be in this no more"
Maybe someday you will see for sure
For sure, for sure
You’ll learn to love again

We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away
Where everything feels okay
Guess we can call this a holiday
Feelings are too honest to be said out loud
We go in lonely dreams
So we’re oceans away
