Produced by waants

From "broken/sometimes repaired", an original performance
created for The Theatre Centre's "Hybrid by Design" Festival, Toronto, Spring 2022

lyrics

At night, where I not sleep at all
At night, where I am still holding on
At night, it’s not easy not to go, honey
That long dark night - it’s a tough act to follow

When the poem of yesterday’s sun's written on my wasted skin
Where the river of all of that love spills out in the field again

You won’t be punished for the lie
And why bother
You won’t be punished for the lie

You say "Let it go",
But I am a burning coal
You beg, you beg
But it’s how I learned to hold

How the sorrow of yesterday’s sun’s burned onto my wasted skin
And the rhythm of all of your light spills out in the field again

You won’t be punished for the lie
And why bother

I am holding on
(You won’t be punished, honey)
I am already gone
(You won’t be punished, honey)
I am holding on
(You won’t be punished honey)
I am already gone

You won’t be punished for the lie…
