You're Not the Only You

May I have this dance?
Says the weeping lilac
as I lay on church grass
passing the time.
You bought flowers
I spent the hours
staring
into their lips.
Take time,
you said,
an ended romance.
Something not meant to last
is wasting our time.
I kissed your neck
the day you met her,
and I don't know
what that makes me.
A false sense
of comfort in bed,
and a bravado
that anyone could see.
You were not the love of my life.
You were standing outside of the light.
You were not the love of my life.
You could never change my mind.

It was February
When you sat on my couch
You cried while I told you a story
And no one’s laughing now
You didn’t listen to my warning
Or maybe you did but you didn’t care
You just gave me some boring excuse about how
You had to get out of there
And I wish I could turn back time
But that’s not how this works
So much to learn and so much to mourn
I’m waving from the shore
Watching you drowning
Voluntarily
Voluntarily
Did he hurt you like I said
Did he make you say things you never meant
In the name of accountability
Waiting for things to blow over eventually
We are twisted together
In some fucked up way
And I never
Thought I’d see the day (that)
And I wish I could turn back time
But that’s not how this works
So much to learn and so much to mourn
I’m waving from the shore
Watching you drowning
Voluntarily
Voluntarily
Voluntarily

Worse Weather

Why would you
say that,
I wasn't prepared
for that
heart attack that you dealt.
I never knew
that you could be so cruel,
but I guess
I should've expected it.
And I don't know what you want from
me.
And I don't want to say please
anymore
anymore
anymore
anymore.
What was it about her
that made you wander,
was I just some stupid little girl
who could never change your mind?
Am I crazy
or am I fading
into the background
of the plotline of your life.
And I don't know what you want from
me.
And I don't want to say please
anymore
anymore
anymore
anymore.
And I don't know what to do
without you.
And I don't know what to say to make it
any better.
But still I know there can be
worse weather so,
who am I to say goodbye?

Walking through a park
That smells like death
And I’m just
Trying to get my head straight.
Trying to collect myself
On a kinda cloudy
Kinda sunny
Day.
Making space for upset feelings
Coming to terms with
All the things I
Said I couldn’t say.
They’ve never gone away.
Maybe baby, maybe
I still see you.
Maybe baby, maybe
I still hear you in the other room
Sometimes baby, sometimes
I gotta tell you
I’m not over you
I’ve been spending
Half of my days
Just trying to convince my
Self that everything’s fine
Rereading the books that I read
When I was fifteen
And I still had the
Time
Thinking about
How to rip my spine out
Or maybe I should just
Say how I
Feel out loud
I’m not sure how.
Maybe baby, maybe
I still see you.
Maybe baby, maybe
I still hear you in the other room
Sometimes baby, sometimes
I gotta tell you
I’m not over you
You
You
You
You
You
You
You

You Know Me

You know me
You know me
That’s the way you hold me
Crushingly
Lovingly
a brand of torture made just for me
Ooh
A steel toe
Nothing left to show
The ocean glass you chose to throw
A morsel
Of hope
Savored on my tongue
You know me
You know me
You know
Know me
What
Is left to say
The dog died yesterday
Lighting
A small flame
Trapped in the attic
For days
You know me
You know me
You know
Know me
You know me
You know me
You know oh oh oh
