Tell Me (The Hoddevik Song) - Ziggy Alberts

I’ve been finding it hard to say how I feel, as of late

There’s a depth to my fatigue, it’s getting hard to explain

There’s a dirt on my skin and it doesn’t seem to wash off

Set sail or call to port, these winds tying round my neck in knots

And I won’t stand by you when your smoking cigarettes

I adore your warmth in my lungs, not that pain in my chest

I feel like a man gone blind in the warmth of the sun

So, teach me brail I can learn to map your body like the stars above

I didn’t know how to say I needed help

And I wasn’t very good at looking after my health

Tell me, tell me are we going to stay here

I didn’t know how to say I needed help

And I wasn’t very good at looking after myself

Tell me, tell me are we going to stay here

If you want me to leave just say I got to go

And if you want me to stay then love don’t be shy

Invite me home

And the river flows better when the nets aren’t filling up with stones

Like the sea there ain’t a day in recent years that I’m not tired anymore

There’s a man in the mirror, but no king to the throne

And you’re a queen with a sweetness like the morning light on the fjords

Tell me how are we going to change

When you want to stay put

And I’m always away and I can hear

The change in my voice on the phone breaking up

Pieces of the Styrofoam from places where the tides been low

I didn’t know how to say I needed help

And I wasn’t very good at looking after my health

Tell me, tell me are we going to stay here

I didn’t know how to say I needed help

And I wasn’t very good at looking after myself

Tell me, tell me are we going to stay here

If you want me to leave just say, I’ve got to go

And if you want me to stay then love don’t be shy, invite me home
