| Your father is out golfing away his problems, and your mom gets paid to talk to
|
| strangers but she still «don't have a word» to say to you. |
| And you say you
|
| don’t care, I don’t know how you do it
|
| If you love them, don’t you need them and don’t you need them to love you too?
|
| So you cut cut cut away all of your feelings, just to avoid them seeing
|
| something
|
| But even if they did, you doubt they would care
|
| You’re just a hair on a blade in a bloodless holy war
|
| So today is your last, just like the past 4 years, the feeling feels healthy
|
| and worth it
|
| But not much has changed, a grown woman afraid of phone calls, afraid of bad
|
| news
|
| Afraid we don’t all live forever like we used to
|
| You take pills in your purse and you wonder if you’d want to
|
| I’m at home feeling sorry for myself and my perfect family, hiding out in my
|
| room always distracted, but somehow you’re always always always on my mind
|
| You’re the reason I’m still staring at the ceiling, losing sleep, wasting time
|
| Do you feel «sorry for me» or «envy me» the way that I envy you at all?
|
| Do you feel «sorry for me» or «envy me» the way that I envy you?
|
| Am I in love when I breathe in pity and leave myself alone? |
