everyman’s daughter
words: detweiler and bergquist
music: bergquist
recording: good dog bad dog

look inside for the elusive goldmine.
broken gl-ss and a little cheap wine
is all that i can find.
and bundles of contradictions,
my heart full of loose connections,
hands across my eyes.
i cannot disguise i’m everyman’s daughter.

it’s always the same old question.
who am i and whose invention?
this armour’s full of dust.
there’s so much of us in each other.
if i hate you you’re my best reminder
of all i wish i was.
i hate you just because i’m everyman’s daughter.

who do you think that i am?
it don’t matter long as we can understand.
i am hurting someone.
i am hurting someone just like, just like you.

insulting the wounds of others,
my sisters, my brothers,
my vision’s way too good.
i carry the inward aching.
like you, i too am naked.
i don’t look that good,
but this is flesh and blood. i’m everyman’s daughter.

look at all the blood we’ve spilt.
i can’t deal with all this fundamental guilt.
i am hurting someone.
i am hurting someone just like, just like you.

i am. i am. i am everyman’s daughter.
