I’m waking up
before this sunrise leaves my room
I’ve given up
on these broken thoughts of you
I know we tried
I know we tried to say what we wanted to say but
then we cried
crying out, please don’t forget what I’m about
I am drowning in your disappointments
this stagnant water, that fills the room
I’m giving up these hopes and dreams for anything you want me to be
it’s the same to me, but I’ll get over it
then we’ll cry,
crying out,
“Now! now! now!
don’t be so proud, dear”
“It’s what we’re laughing about, it’s what we’re screaming about”
and I’ll let go again,
and I don’t know again
I’m standing here but I’m miles away
working through my hazy head
with sleeping hands
that can’t get a hold of me
and this lump in my throat
I sing
to this empty bottle,
on bloodied knees
just listen to me
I hope you’ll listen to me
