Wake me now
Cause I'm still pressed for time
I was always wasted
But I always waited
You bled me out
And left me dry
Count your blessings
That you made it out of there
By the skin of your teeth
And half alive
And these laments
Stay decades behind
An August kiss in the rain
With postpartum pain

It seems
I wore my voice out
When I wore the words out
I used to wear those clothes out
Until something tore my heart out
So please
I still wear my hair down
And I'll wear my heart out
On the sleeve
Of a jacket
That my little brother has now

Six long weeks
Yet I have no time
So I'll learn to speak
With nothing on my mind
But still I see
A memory
Of the kitchen table
And the snow outside
A flicker from the street light
Who mattered then
They never did again
But I saw it flicker
Just one more time
Then you turned on me
You turned on a dime

It seems
I wore my voice out
When I wore the words out
I used to wear those clothes out
Until something tore my heart out
So please
I still wear my hair down
And I'll wear my heart out
On the sleeve
Of a jacket
That my little brother has now

And all those December nights
(I would feel so sick
So sick from the motions)
The cold always felt just right
The bright future that I believed
(I felt so lost
In my devotion)
Was just a past life daydream
And all those December nights
The cold always felt just right
(But we were young
Swallowed and snowed in.)
The future that I believed
Was just a past life daydream
