Lyrics

[Verse 1] No, Medusa was not always a gorgon No, my witch isn't always benevolent She used me, an unwitting accomplice On her weapon my fingerprints [Refrain] How does this happen? How does this happen? How does this happen? [Chorus] For twenty-nine years I've been searching for you Twenty-nine years You, a most elusive truth These tattered bits of me I've been piecing For twenty-nine years [Refrain] How does this happen? How does this happen? How does this happen? [Verse 2] So then, Athena wanted revenge She let Poseidon get away with it Just like my own witch almost did Rock tied, ready to drown my marriage [Refrain] How does this happen? How does this happen? How does this happen? [Chorus] For twenty-nine years I've been searching for you Twenty-nine years You, a most elusive truth These tattered bits of me I've been piecing For twenty-nine years [Refrain] How does this happen? [Bridge] Walk with me in your bare feet (In the sugar sand) Time to diffuse bombs I planted in our bed We can heal with forgiveness (In the sugar sand) My friend [Chorus] For twenty-nine years I've been searching for you Twenty-nine years You, a most elusive truth These tattered bits of me I've been piecing For twenty-nine years [Outro] These victim tears A song from my past To twenty-nine years Yes, we are free at last We can unlash Ourselves from that mast After twenty-nine years
