Lyrics Foster - TROVE

Foster

Lights flicker and fade
And burst into a flame
A fire will start today
No one to burn you out
But no one to burn the town
Now picture a boy at school
Burning without a clue
Why his hands aren’t big
Why his teeth aren’t straight
His eyes are crystal blue
What were you supposed to say
Please say anything
Was it hard to walk away?
Could your feet not carry the weight?
Was I somebody you could not escape?
Was it hard for you to stay?
Goodbye I’m not ready
So I’ll fade away
You never know
How much you still grow
You’ll never get to see, see yourself in me
No bridges to be burned
No lessons to be learned
You’ll never get to see, see yourself in me
It was hard to stand in place
Watching you forget my face
Was I something you could not escape?
Is it hard for me to stay
I don’t need a single goddamn thing
So just fade away
(Can you see yourself in me
Can you see yourself in me)
Can you see yourself in me
'Cause I can’t see anything
Can you see yourself in me
'Cause I can’t see anything
You’ll never know
How much you still grow
You’ll never get to see
See yourself in me
No lesson to be learned
No bridges to be burned
You never get to see, see yourself in me
