Sitting with the sting of separation
Forgotten how to be on my own
All the unused muscles I now need
To hold myself together
I was a self-sufficient being
A sorrowful, mercurial thing
Till your hands found my strings
And you taught me how to fall open
Frightened but still I surrendered
I’ve got to be an island
Can’t open up like this again, open up like this again
‘Cause I gave it all away
This unrelenting silence
It has never felt so strange, no, it’s never felt so strange
Still missing our golden days
Never wanted to play the game
But I really thought I would win this time
Thought I’d walk away all flush-faced and vindicated
Now I’m headed into the night with my dunce cap
And a pocketful of dreams given up on
Gonna make some bad decisions
Don’t call me till the morning
How am I supposed
To recover what I’ve given
Words hang in my throat
Unsaid because I learned you, I listened
When is it too late
To turn back to myself
I am now losing faith
In the concept of somebody else
