John K. Samson - Requests Lyrics

I want you to know what I forgive you for
Now that you're all ashes anyway
Every step into the river pushes you further away

I want you to hear the farm apologize
For letting you believe you could return
I want you to dream in all the languages we couldn't learn

I want you to write my name
Under your name, with the year
I was born and you began to disappear

I want you to watch the generation sprawl
Constellations in the northern sky
I want every satellite to circle you when you arrive

I want every highway sign
To remember we were here
I want you to take your time to disappear

I want you to know what I forgive you for
Now that you're all ashes anyway
