about

this is a song about keeping it all in. which isn't good for you btw

lyrics

i chose my wounds
and picked at my words
missed the forest for the trees
until i watched them all burn

they said they’d be right here
if i needed to talk
took one last drag
and walked right off
that’s a part of me
a part of me

daddy called the house
said we don’t see him enough
he had a stroke of genius
and he never got up

spent christmas eve
in a hotel bar
funny how sometimes
we forget who we are
that old part of me
it’s a part of me

now i don’t know if honesty’s enough
all of my loose ends are scared to touch
and calling back might hurt more than i’ve already hurt us
thats the part of me that i don’t trust

i cut my teeth
like they cut cocaine
watered down bottle
at the back of the train

overturned tables
and musical chairs
walls that don’t talk
to people that aren't there
is that a part of me
another part of me

doctor called the house
and no one picked up
left a message with the address
and said it’d mean so much

spent new year’s eve
in no rush to leave
my bruised knuckles threaded
through my daddy's ring
that’s a part of me
an unspoken part of me

now i don’t know if honesty’s enough
all of my loose ends im scared to touch
and showing my face now might just hurt more than silence does
that’s the part of me that i don’t trust

now i don’t know if honesty’s enough
all of my loose ends are scared to touch
the part of me that wants to leave this just the way it was
that’s the part of me that i don’t trust
