Tire Swing Songtext
von Nectarine Girl

I′ve been told I whisper when I talk
Step softly and whistle while I walk
Get distracted way too easily
'Cause nothing really matters much to me

Daylight becomes a scarcity
I flip a page in the calendar I keep
The silver girl will cry and brush her hair
Then take a winter′s breath of sharpened air

I put too much honey in my tea
I cover my eyes so I can't see
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me
When I fell from the tree, off the tire swing
When I fell from the tree, off the tire swing

Don′t tether me to your beliefs
I′ll bat my eyes and paint my cheeks
A cherry red to make me feel alive
I cross my arms and fixate on the sky


I put on my floral pattern dress
Mourn all the life that I haven't lived through yet
I trace my shadow in the ground below
If I give in now I hope it doesn′t show

'Cause I put too much honey in my tea
I cover my eyes so I can′t see
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me
When I fell from the tree, off the tire swing
When I fell from the tree, off the tire swing

Don′t tell me you don't think it's broken
I think it′s well beyond repair
Don′t tell me you don't think it′s hopeless
The missing piece that wasn't there

Don′t tell me you don't think it′s broken
I think it's well beyond repair
Don't tell me you don′t think it′s hopeless
The missing piece that wasn't there


I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me
I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me, for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me, for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me, for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me, for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn't feel bad for me, for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
I said you shouldn′t feel bad for me
(Fell from the tree, off the tire swing)
