Jessie Says

One of these days
Some of this is gonna have to burn down
So we can see through to the other side
Hey maybe we could get out

And the way he looked at me hurt my head
And I wondered if he wanted me gone
Half as much as I'd wanted him dead

Jessie says when I get older I will mellow out
Though Jessie's almost always right
I don't know why but just this time
I can't see that coming around

Maybe unrelatedly I'm
Sorry that I said you'd let me down
Why do I lay the blame so far away
When I set the stage
Abandoning myself first every time

And all the ways I fucked up in the name of being kind
Watching you walk out the door pretending I was fine

Bypassing most of the pain all my life

And the way he looks at me hurts my head
And I wonder if I want him gone half as much as
He used to want me dead

Jessie says when I get older even if I have my doubts
I'll look back once all this is over and I'll get it figured out
