You Were Small Video (MV)

We would swim
On rocks and scramble through the trees
And at our size
The waist-deep water was the sea
You turned to me
And said that you had done
All that you can
I don't love you now
But I forgave you then
You learned to run
And I learned violence just because
And we left behind
In leaves and dirt what made us kind
Gently
The softness fades and we'll
Do the same
I don't love you now
But I forgave you then
You're just like your father
Are there words that sting
Any harder
I know that he can't control you
Are you something stronger
Or is his blood
Bound to destroy you
I know that he can't control you
