Half Hour Showers
You don't have have the authority
to tie my stomach up
so from here on out
I'm in control of my own feelings
I'm done digging my own grave
it's too early
I have plans and it's time I take a step towards fulfilling them
There's a USB drive I used to carry around
that in case I die maybe you'd find it
I know I was too cowardly to ever confront you face to face
so this is my attempt to better myself by letting go
I threw that drive away today
but it's still sitting at the end of the driveway
now I'm retrieving it
only because I don't want a stranger to see it
I couldn't possibly live with somebody laughing at me
can you believe it
it's been 13 years
and I still see your eyes every night
in the pitch black staring right back at mine
You always said if it came to this you would leave in a heartbeat
I don't know if Ive seen you for the last time now
I just knew I had to stop
No it's not like me
To just leave and break it off
I can count on my hands The Times I have
I'm sorry Tim went crazy
and I don't visit him
And your ex husband likes little kids
I know you cared for us so much
You did everything you did
To keep us safe and Maybe you thought you were keeping us safe
Maybe you did
Maybe you knew your hug like my fathers
It's imprinted in my DNA
And how I loved your scary stories
And how they made me feel OK
Watching X Files while my Grandma died
like it was yesterday
to tie my stomach up
so from here on out
I'm in control of my own feelings
I'm done digging my own grave
it's too early
I have plans and it's time I take a step towards fulfilling them
There's a USB drive I used to carry around
that in case I die maybe you'd find it
I know I was too cowardly to ever confront you face to face
so this is my attempt to better myself by letting go
I threw that drive away today
but it's still sitting at the end of the driveway
now I'm retrieving it
only because I don't want a stranger to see it
I couldn't possibly live with somebody laughing at me
can you believe it
it's been 13 years
and I still see your eyes every night
in the pitch black staring right back at mine
You always said if it came to this you would leave in a heartbeat
I don't know if Ive seen you for the last time now
I just knew I had to stop
No it's not like me
To just leave and break it off
I can count on my hands The Times I have
I'm sorry Tim went crazy
and I don't visit him
And your ex husband likes little kids
I know you cared for us so much
You did everything you did
To keep us safe and Maybe you thought you were keeping us safe
Maybe you did
Maybe you knew your hug like my fathers
It's imprinted in my DNA
And how I loved your scary stories
And how they made me feel OK
Watching X Files while my Grandma died
like it was yesterday
