Herons Video (MV)

Someone keeps changing the locks in your house
You're outside the room looking in
People are talking don't know what about
It's too late to ask them again

There's so much that's slipped through the cracks in your mind
You don't know your favorite song
Chase a rolling marble who knows what you'll find
You never can hold them for long

When who you used to be sees who you are
It slowly tears you apart
But never mind

I tell you my name and my mama's name too
You don't like to ask any more
I see in your eyes that you're scared by the truth
You remember you'll forget who we are

Retreat if you must to that strong skinny girl
Pigtails and poise in toe shoes
She lived in a simpler time simpler world
No one would hold it against you

When who you used to be sees who you are
It slowly tears you apart
But never mind

Above the reeds the herons still fly
Beyond your big house by the marsh
Their grace as they lankily take to the sky
It's how you tell your days apart

When who you used to be sees who you are
It slowly tears you apart
But never mind
