Lyrics by：Sharon Van Etten/Jorge Balbi Castellano/Devin Ray Hoff/Kristina Lieberson/Charles Damski/Daniel Knowles

Produced by：Marta Salogni/Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory

All my life I closed my eyes

And stumbled in with wayward mind

A stubborn child but love did have

With one light shining

Overlooked

I wish I knew what you had said

I was hardened by what thoughts you meant

My hands are shaking as a mother

Trying to raise her son right

Why can't you see it from the other side?

We must imagine what it must be like

The southern life

It's such a ******* lie

Oh what it must be like

Shall his life be like my shooting star

Forever frozen?

No he's too smart

I can't believe what I have seen

I wake up to a ******* dream

There is no light

There is no dark

There is no life

Or sense of being

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like

Such a southern life

Such a southern life

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like

Oh what it must be like
