Emma

Emma, you didn't have to try that hard
Because no one remembers you either way
Signed a check to make sure you'd stay silent

Why lie, they forgot what you even look like
And that's treason because they're the ones
Who paid so much to keep your tired looks

Remember when they yelled at your co-worker about some spilled milk?

Yet, it smelled that way inside
So it's hard to say if it was even the worst thing

And I can't defend you, well I can behind closed doors
Or else I'll get my ass kicked

Another glorious dull decay
For these friends of convenience
A topical charade to converse about
They'll bust out the milk bones
When you plot the grounds (No doubt!)

Did they really think I would forget?
A lifetime's worth of vicious whispers
An avarice for being fashionably correct
Hard to believe I did not listen to my friends

I didn't say anything but it's best to keep opinions in line
Cause if she hears it wrong it is relationship suicide

No one is living with you
Not a candidate to say I would too

But I wish I was
Or maybe I don't
Can you help me decide?
No, you won't

What the hell do you want?
Lying on the application
Deceiving description in tiny treaties
I've had enough

So worn out by your callous disguise
You don't remember me
It's so embarrassing
Don't lie to me, don't lie to me!

My god, you got nothing better to do
Than to think about
How they didn't want you all those years ago too

I can't recall this purchase
But now I'm under the heat lamps
Dissection seems well deserved rather than misplaced

Relocating time
I did not have the nerve to replace
With people so invested in years ago
I'll be back when they get over it, let me know!

Emma, Emma
Who am I?
Please remember if you can
