I want you to be well
I want this to be everything
we thought we wanted then
back when we wed
we gave all ourselves
I saw things in the whitest light
and darkest parts of you
and I feel it too
sometimes we try
sometimes we fail
this time we tried
please be kind to yourself
please believe me
if only as the one who took your name
even in vain

Clementine

on another sleepless night
I stand underwater close my eyes
anxious, paralyzed
please don’t go to bed
please don’t go
you’re several bottles deep
something flickers on the screen
aching between my knees
please don’t go to bed
please don’t go
please darling reach for me, speak
please darling reach for me
across the table I
watch your fingers peel a clementine
hungry, but you’re not mine
please don’t go to bed
please don’t go

darling look for me, back in the place where we
built a life and spent our days, lost our love and parted ways
this isn't how I thought our fated love would go
tried to be one and the same in the broken home we made
you're gone longer every day
I saw you off that day, touch you before you go
gazed into your tired eyes, saw all the wasted days inside
and still I glance for you smoking on sidewalks
where you’d go to be alone, I’d listen for you coming home
you're gone longer every day
I wish the best for you out on the other coast
with your longing lady dove and the city in your skin
but I won't wait for you, or let my lonesome bones
fall into another's hold, I will to do this on my own
I'm gone longer every day

Pity Party

I don’t really want you to be mine anymore
even when it’s good I feel like I’ve gone overboard
I don’t really want you to be mine anymore
I don’t want to be defined as a wife at 24
it's dawning on my now you’re no good for me
it's not enough that I love you
you’re everything that I’ve been waiting for
and too much more
I don’t really want you to be mine anymore
I don’t want to be a part of your pity party anymore
your anger’s never cause enough
to treat me any less than kindly
I know you’re hurting darling I feel you
but fuck you too
I don’t really want you to be mine anymore
I don’t want to live this kind of a life anymore
we tried to wish it all away
but god it doesn’t work that way
you’re hurting me and I’ll admit this too
I can’t heal you
