verse 1 When you catch the light You look like your mother It crushes me some, Just right from the side When you catch the light There's a flash of wild creatures, Before the Stone Age of the preachers, And the husbands, and the wives verse 2 When you catch the light The flood changes direction, And darkens the lens That projects my disguise As you fight along-side, You'll discover my weakness I'm not fighting for your freedom, I am fighting to be wild. "Hey, little girl, would you like to be The king's pet or the king?" "I'd choose odorless and invisible, But otherwise I would choose the king. Even though it sounds the loneliest... And my brother's hands would poison me."
