This song is a companion story to the Hex Lover track called Heather.

lyrics

When I look back upon this day with you
I cannot tell if it’s sunny or blue
I cannot tell
and you’ve made me so confused

When I look back upon this day with you
at the fairground I did not tell you the truth
I did not know
how to play by my own rules

when I think back to that night at the fair
We were spinning
on the tilt a whirl of terror
it was Heather
that dragged us over the fence
I tore my t-shirt … but after that
nothing makes sense

it was a whirlwind, that fate filled, evening’s events
we were fused together by that forest of myths
I think our love’s a trauma, we miss her so much
your hold on me is melting away

but
I was a bird, fallen, from the nest
into your arms, a sucker, the kind you like best
I want to shake you, just shake you like an egg
until you're helpless, so braindead
I said what I said

when we were out, in the woods in September
I did not tell.. you all the things I remember
I could not lie
So I left you forever
but if I told you
I know you, would have
you would have, saved me from Heather

wouldn’t you?

save me from Heather

do you know what she is capable of?

you think she wouldn’t hurt a fly
but you don’t know her I like I do

You don’t know Heather.
