lyrics

leaned in the window when he forgave you
lionly coward; never strong enough to say it
i'm talking to someone,
thought i was doing better

cannot control the weather in my own house.

frostbitten tiptoes trip down the aisle
headaches and joint pain caught up with my old age
if you find me in the morning,
just drag me outside to my backyard

and let me sleep with my friends
in the flower bed hidden from the weather
cut ties to the tether

it wasn’t my fault (tell yourself)
a fault in the dark (tell yourself)
the vines in the yard pulling me apart

dismember me, don’t go easy my friend.
