SOTD – Swans “I Remember Who You Are”

July 29th, 2010

This song is the song of the day purely because this morning I could not get it out of my head, despite not having listened to it in ten years. So whoever, wherever I read what triggered this song to replay in my head all morning… Thanks? Anyway, now I give this to you:

Swans “I Remember Who You Are”

When other people say
You’re someone to misuse
Shut in behind your young girl’s face
And helpless in your bed of thorns
I’ll remember who you are
Yes I’ll remember who you are
I’ll remember who you are:
A young girl, unchained
Come back here now
I know you’re somewhere still alive
Strong behind your young girl’s tears
I know you’re somewhere unchanged
Oh I remember who you are
Yes I’ll remember who you are
I’ll remember who you are
A young girl, unchained
There stands a young girl naked
In her innocence unused
And she holds me in her small hand
And she smiles down on me
I am innocent in her dark eyes
I will lose my heart in the sand
You’re cruel but you’re good for me
And you hold me in your young girl’s hand
I Remember Who You Are
Yes I Remember Who You Are
I remember who you are
A young girl, unchained
