Nadia Reid
Richard
[Verse 1]
Richard liked the sound of his own voice
By the kitchen in the mirror
It extracted all of our teeth
Filled the sink with blood
And I am on the cross of forgiveness
He wanted it final, finally

[Verse 2]
And I ain’t afraid to say it
He is strong when it comes to love
And I was driving places in his heart
Bound for endless love
Pushing at the arrow of time
Taking back the hand that is mine

[Verse 3]
Out there playing cricket with my brother
He is taller than me
Ain’t no way to say it other than
I have fallen from you
Pushing at the arrow of time
Taking back the hand that is mine

[Verse 1]
Richard liked the sound of his own voice
By the kitchen in the mirror
It extracted all of our teeth
Filled the sink with blood
And I am on the cross of forgiveness
He wanted it final, finally

[Verse 4]
And my record is playing in your heart
The flowers we planted have blown apart
And like an ash of iris I am sinking in the door
We wanted it final
We wanted it finally
