She Looked Like Me! lyrics by Magdalena Bay
Hello
Down the line, over the wave
Two kids and a military
Turn their tongue, change their name
La love, born to marry
Crossed their hearts, crossing the earth
One year then a baby’s carried
Grows up young, screams at graves
Bang-bang and it’s customary
Ordinary
Hang the war over the hearth
Five more in a house of many
Argentine fabergé
La love born unsteady
Kids hears ghosts singing us names
Likes guns and he’s history
That’s his curse, that’s my name
He sings up to the meaning training
I didn’t know what you wanted
But I recognized her eyes
Her hair lifted as she stood there
Right there, in the light
And she felt like a dream
I didn’t know what to think
She looked like me
We stood mirrored till I leaned in
And then you know what she did
She shot at me like an earthbound bullet
And she then she left her hands around my neck and deflate
Love
Just ordinary love
Let me hold you in my arms
Oh love
The old familiar judge
Bang-bang and it’s customary
America stole my fate
La love and it made me carried
Turn my tongue, change my name
Bang bang born unsteady
Crossed my hearts crossing the earth
La love and it start to carry
That’s my curse, that’s my love
Bang-bang and it’s customary
Ordinary
