Lyrics Sliced Fruit - Leo Xia

You put a bowl of sliced fruit in my hand
As I grow older, I'll try to understand
All the things, all the wings you built for me
I flew a little bit too close to the sun
Sweet Daedalus, I tasted freedom I succumbed
To the heat of marching to my own beat

One day I'll find an apple to skin and cut
To the core until I feel enough for you
Someday I'll be the one that calls you everyday
Just to hear your voice echo from miles away

You cut into your heart
Save me the best part
Cookie jar not so far from my reaching arms
You ate the bitter fruit
Sliced your hurt in two
Divide it up, measuring cup
One for my brother too

Apples and oranges cannot be compared
You peel them both with indiscriminate care
Without a thought to the time you may have lost

One day I'll find an apple to skin and cut
To the core until I feel enough for you
Someday I'll be the one that calls you everyday
Just to hear your voice echo from miles away

You cut into your heart
Save me the best part
Cookie jar not so far from my reaching arms
You ate the bitter fruit
Sliced your hurt in two
Divide it up, measuring cup
One for my brother too

You cut into your heart
Save me the best part
Cookie jar not so far from my reaching arms
You ate the bitter fruit
Sliced your hurt in two
Divide it up, measuring cup
One for my brother too
