lyrics
it takes a lot to keep yourself from saying
happy birthday to people who’d prefer
not hear from you anymore
and still there is a day in march and in september and sometimes even may when i’m fighting off the urge to say hello and i don’t know you anymore and every memory i have has reduced you down to more than you ever were than i ever was to you.
i am home most nights and isn’t loneliness just
possibility?
i might not ever get better
but i hope i do.
in the baddest of my moments
i’m ashamed to say
i don’t hope the same for you.
i’ve gotten off thinking about you apologizing
and if everything is out there now then nothing is
embarrassing and what is it about unrealistic fantasy that makes it satisfying?
it’s not that there’s nothing to lose, it’s that the nothing’s always me.
i might not ever get better
i hope i do.
you might not ever get better
i hope you do.
i will make from our ruins a monument, a reminder to myself that worship does not keep any temple from falling apart.
i hope there’s no one out there like me.
but i am a copy of every movement i see.
