When I Was Five
Clare Bowditch & the Feeding Set

If life were like a mountain, did you, did you not fall?

I have missed you since I was five.

And I don't recall your eyes but your hand I do recall,

and I know how you smelt when you were alive.

You died.

Like we're all gonna go someday.

You died.

I was five and I wish you'd stayed.

They say you crossed a river to touch God's hand but I did not understand where he lived.

So I tried to write him letters - letters of demand,

saying she's my sister - back you give her

you died.

Like we'reall gonna go someday

You died.

I was here and you went away.

I didn't see you die, I didn't see your casket.

don't remember if i cried, but i never quite got past it.

You're fragile like a bee, and skinny as a steeple,

and all these memories - are they mine or other peoples?

when you died

Like we're all gonna go someday,

I was five and I thought I could make you stay
