an exercise in perspective

wait for me
i'm running out of time
and you know that my mind is not what it used to be

can you just wait for me
feels like i'm losing control
i've made it this far, so just wait in the car, i can do it

feels like everything is slipping out of my hands
why does everyone that loved me have to leave me here
everything i did was just to give you a home, now i'm all alone
now i spend every night cooking for two

but he's here
i have this house
and a brand new business that i'm excited about
deep breath in
i'm fine

care for me
i'm not running out of need
and you know my life is not what it used to be

can you just care for me
feels like i'm losing my mind
i won't feel like i failed, just cuz you went and bailed, i can do it

feels like everything is slipping out of my hands
why does everyone that loved me get to leave me here
everything i did was just to give you a home, now i'm all alone
now i spend every night cooking for two

but he's here
i have this house
and some new furniture i'm excited about
hold your breath in
i'm fine

do you ever think
about me now
do you ever think
you didn't have to leave so loud
i haven't felt like myself in years
you won't look at me so i'll save my tears
don't you think you could have a little grace
cuz now i'll spend the rest of my life saving face
'cause who am i
if i'm not the one
who gets to go around fixing everyone

feels like everything is slipping out of my hands
why does everyone that loved me get to leave
everything i did was just to give you a home, now i'm all alone
now i spend every night cooking for two

but he's here
i have this house
and a million new things to be excited about
deep breath in
i'm fine
