All i am is a bundle of pent up emotions
Years of thoughts i never learned to properly express
All i am is a body going through the motions
Years of mindless {?} myself into this mess
I digress
All my anger simmers just to {lie?} to reach the surface
Years of fumbling with thoughts left spitefully unsaid
All my teardrops are too weak to lift this from my shoulders
Years of leaving me with dry eyes and a clouded head
Like i said
There’s a kitchen timer ticking as water boils on the stove
Days go by, and i keep thinking on until i finally explode
Oh
All the time you’ve spent with me, you’ve been a perfect partner
Years of finding all the words that i could never say
Every time that i get worse, my dear, it makes it harder
But if i told you to move on from me again today
Would you still stay?
Every time i wake and see you’ve texted me good morning
Darling, there’s a shred of guilt i never seem to shake
I’ve been running for too long to face my own affections
And i fear, when i find the courage, it will be too late
You shouldn’t wait
There’s a kitchen timer ticking as water boils on the stove
Days go by, and i keep thinking on until i finally explode
Oh
Seven years now, i’ve been trying and failing
Just to put to paper all the things that you mean to me
Seven years now, there’s been progress, but surely
You’re built for bigger things than me
There’s a kitchen timer ticking as water boils on the stove
Days go by, and i keep thinking it’s better if i just let you go
Oh
There’s a kitchen timer ticking as water boils on the stove
Days go by, and i keep thinking on until i finally explode
