how it ends

little miss sunshine filminin soundtrackinde yer alan, devotchka 'nın içimi eriten parçası.

sözleri:

hold your grandmother's bible to your breast.
gonna put it to the test.
you want it to be blessed.
and in your heart,
you know it to be true,
you know what you gotta do.
they all depend on you.
and you already know.
yeah, you already know how this will end.

there is no escape,
from the slave-catchers' songs.
for all of the loved ones gone.
forever's not so long.
and in your soul,
they poked a million holes.
but you never lettem show.
c'mon it's time to go.

and
you
already know.
yeah, you already know
how this will end.

now you've seen his face.
and you know that there's a place,
in the sun,
for all that you've done,
for you and your children.
no longer shall you need.
you always wanted to believe,
just ask and you'll receive,
beyond your wildest dreams.

and
you
already know.
yeah, you already know
how this will end.

you already know (you already know)
you already know (you already know)
you already love will end.

andrea gibson'ın devotchka'nın aynı adlı parçasına ithafen yazdığı şiirin adıdır aynı zamanda how it ends.

bu şiirin en güzel tarafı, şiirin başında belirtilen geçen zamanın gerçek olması, andrea şiiri her okuyacağında zamanı gerçek güne uygun olarak değiştiriyor ve romantizmi beni eritecek düzeyde.

şiirin en sevdiğim kısmı:

you will never lose me to the wind
you are the lightning that made me fill my chest with candles
you are the thunder clapping for the poem that nobody else wants to hear
you are an icicle’s tear watering a tulip on the first day of spring
you melt me alive
you kiss me as deep as my roots will reach
and i want nothing more than to be an eyelash fallen on your cheek
then being collected by your fingers
and held like a wish
i promise
that whatever i do
i will always try my best
to come true *
