From the recording About to Burst

Lyrics

I Held The Satchel
by Danielle Howle

I held the satchel
walked like a lawyer
talked like a mother
loved like a sister

You say you don’t mean that
let me through
the accident happened
the victim was you

Now all these systems
seem by design
to take this poison
and move this time

Say you don’t mean that
let me through
the accident happened
the victim was you

Now I can’t find you
but you’re right here
say I love you
to your ears
the walking beating
breathing sounds
I say I love you like a
leaf in the wind

Why I listen
why I still care
why I mumble
in your little ear

Say you don’t mean that
let me through the
accident happened
the victim was you
