Wild Daffodil

Wild daffodil growing out of the garbage can
That has been in the alley
For as long as i've lived here

It grows like the guilt on a page from the bible man
That has guided the family
For as long as we've been one

I couldn't say what it means as a parable
But it feels like it could be one
If i knew how to listen

Do me a favor and don't tell my father
On earth or in heaven
I'd like to learn this for myself this time

I can't say i've been washed clean
And you can't understand that
I don't know what that means

Give me some time to myself
Give me some time to myself

I've felt my anger
I've seen my pain on
Growing like the weeds
On the side of the interstate

Give me some time to myself
To stare at daffodils
Give me some time to myself

I was a quitter
I was afraid
I'd be the last one
To recognize my mistakes

Give me some time to myself
