Cherry - Louise Burns

Sunrise above a city sky

Feels kinda heavy like a Vicodin

Or bumps in the air when you fly

So I think about the stars

It’s a distraction when the lights are dim

And my thoughts go to places so dark

Cherry blossoms in the night

Feels like a photograph that’s taken from

Another person’s life

Hotels, businessmen in cars

Remind me of tender years

And nights of tears

And teenage emotional scars

I want to forget, I want to move on

But you keep coming back to me, relentlessly

Like a shadow, a memory, a song

I want to forget, I want to move on

But you keep coming back to me, a reverie

Or a feeling you’ve had all alone

But I, I’ve seen that face before

And I know how, I know how it’s gonna end

With me choking on all the things

That I never said, that I never said

I’m sorry that I’m always in my head

I want to forget, I want to move on

But you keep coming back to me, relentlessly

Like a shadow, a memory, a song

I want to forget, I want to move on

But you keep coming back to me, a reverie

A feeling you’ve had all alone

But I, I’ve seen that face before

And I know how, I know how it’s gonna end

With me choking on all the things

That I never said, that I never said

I’m sorry that I’m always in my head

I’ve seen that face before

And I know how, I know how it’s gonna end

With me choking on all the things

That I never said, that I never said

I’m sorry that I’m always in my head (In my head)

I’m sorry that I’m always in my head (In my head)

I’m sorry that I’m always in my head (In my head)

I’m sorry that I’m always in my head (In my head)

Sorry that I’m always in my head (In my head)

In my head, in my head, in my head
