Leave Me To The Moon
Fay Wildhagen Lyrics

Sometimes I wish I only was a daughter
There are moments when I long to be a child under the care of my mother, without having to worry about responsibilities or other people.

With my toes dipped into the water
I envision myself in a calm and relaxing environment, like dipping my toes in a body of water.

I was in the arms of my mother
I wish to experience the warmth and love of a motherly figure to provide me comfort and security.

I didn't have to care about any or another
As a child, I wouldn't have to worry about the opinions or feelings of others as I am shielded from the harsh realities of the world.

Sometimes I wish I was gone and wasted
There are times when I wish I could escape reality by getting lost in a state of oblivion.

So I didn't have to care about faces
If I was under the influence, I wouldn't have to worry about the judgments of others or the expectations placed on me.

And just swim past the places
I would like to ignore the areas in my life that don't provide fulfillment and just move on to more enjoyable situations.

I was supposed to live
This refers to societal expectations, and the desire to live freely without conforming to what is expected of me.

But I am a soldier
Despite my desire for escape, I understand that life is a battle and I must keep fighting through it all.

With a thousand faces on my shoulder
I carry the weight of many responsibilities and expectations that come from the people and things around me, weighing me down.

And I'm walking on the water
Despite it all, I am still standing strong and persevering through everything, like walking on water.

Sometimes I wish I was holy
There are moments when I long to be free of flaws or troubles and feel pure and at peace within myself.

With no worries, and never lonely
In my ideal world, I would never feel the burden of anxiety or loneliness.

I could lay down and just be
I yearn for a life without constant work or effort and instead, to be able to simply exist without stress.

I wouldn't need anybody else to find peace
I long to find inner peace within myself, rather than relying on others to provide me comfort or support.

I still need you here
Despite my desire for peace and independence, there are still times when I need the presence of a loved one to ease my worries.

I still want you here
I value the connection and relationship with someone I care about, even if I strive for independence at times.

With a thousand faces on my shoulders
The burden of responsibilities and expectations never truly fades away, becoming a constant weight on my being.

And I'm walking on the water
Despite the ongoing struggle, I will keep fighting and moving forward, like walking on water - a feat that seems impossible yet somehow achievable.
