Seeking

from Outro by Emilie Kahn

about

"Seeking is an apology, an ashamed admission of wrong-doing after coming out of a daze; this is the narrator waking up from the dream we began in on Swimmer. This song was the one that felt like it absolutely needed to remain acoustic and let the words stand mostly naked alongside the harp." - Emilie Kahn

lyrics

-- Lyrics --

I’m sorry for calling every night
Like I was entitled to love
Like some kind of bully
But not worthy of

I thought what I sought was seeking me too
Reaching around in the dark
All of the while I protest like a child
Who doesn’t get what they want

I see now what’s going on
I’ve been the worst kind of fool

Should not have come round every night
As if I could force you into love
Like some kind of deranged
Like you didn’t make it plain
Like insane

I thought what I sought was seeking me too
Reaching around in the dark
All of the while I protest like a child
Who doesn’t get what they want
I see now what’s going on

I’ve been the worst kind of fool
I see now what’s going on
I’ve been the worst kind there is

Can’t take it back, I can’t take it back
Anymore than you can
I wish you well, oh I wish you well
Hope you have forgotten

Can’t take it back, I can’t take it back
Anymore than you can
I wish you well, oh I wish you well
Hope you will not forgive
