Mother's Day

I can’t shake the feeling

My life is hanging by a thread

One wrong move

And I’ll lose everything I’ve ever had

I never make the best of anything

Searching for a way out, constantly

You always see the best in everything

And find a way with honesty

And honestly

I can never express what you mean to me

I quit the smokes

A year after Gravestones

I don’t feel better

Just more alone

And I know I don’t say it enough

But, I love you

And everything you’ve done for us

You’ve done for us

I need the rain

The real rain

The clouds that cover me

Like passing showers

Our time is fleeting

I don’t want to be okay

I’m addicted to the misery

The victim, always

Never leave

I just can’t take it

My selfish selflessness masks the glaring imperfections

The imperfections

I quit the smokes

A year after Gravestones

I don’t feel better

Just more alone

And I know I don’t say it enough

But, I love you

And everything you’ve done for us

You’ve done for us

Nostalgia always gets the best of me

Everything we used to be

Maybe we’re fucked up now

Maybe it’s just me

And I’m tired of lying

Nothing’s the same since dad died

You’re holding it together

Oh, how I know you try

I quit the smokes

A year after Gravestones

I don’t feel better

Just more alone

And I know I don’t say it enough

But, I love you

And everything you’ve done for us

You’ve done for us
