done deal

you took and you took and you took
til i had nothing left to give
to you or anyone
i’m left as a shell as a mess
as a hollow little heap
you could clean up but you won’t
you thought you thought it fine
you thought oh this feels good
you thought you’d get more time with me
you thought you thought it fine
you thought oh this feels good
you thought you’d get more time with me
i think it’s time to plan an escape
i think i could slip out
quiet and unseen
with nothing left there’s nothing to take
oh i’m worthless to you
your exploits won’t get you cake
i’m done
oh i’m done
i’m done
oh i’m done
i tried and i tried and i tried
until my hands were tough as
leather hide
reserves run dry
i’m showing without any rest
i’ve got the face to prove it
oh my lord
when will it stop
you thought you thought it fine
you thought oh this feels good
you thought you’d get more time with me

in my bones
03:33
|

it’s frozen out
my movements are
hushed of sound
and i’m covering
so much ground
silently figuring out
my ways thirsty these days
oooh
it’s storming out
the sky is
breaking clouds
and my thoughts come
crashing down
colliding with
tired ground
i think about all these things
oooh
i’m just trying to move along
i asked for help and
came out stronger
and i can feel it in my bones
feeling my whole body go
it’s lifted now
the heat has
passed this town
and my heavily
sweated brow
no longer needs
sorting out
i see clearly these things
oooh
i’m just trying to move along
i asked for help and
came out stronger
and i can feel it in my bones
feeling my whole body go

growing old (judy)

please don’t tell me
that your growing old
that means your moving on
not ready for you to be gone
please don’t tell me
that i’m still so young
it’s not like i’m an
eight year old
runnin around
with my knees scratched up
and my hair to the ground
i saw you
i saw you that night
ya got back from your visit
eyes welling up
sayin it’s
alright
i said mother mother mother
why won’t you cry
with me
why do you have to be the
bravest one
being brave for me

wont you wait
03:13
|

i grew a foot since i
saw you last
and hey
i wanted you to wait
cos i knew i knew i would
change
but too little too late
too little too late
won’t you wait
just through the day
and your interest did fade
you’re on your way
won’t you wait
i know it’s getting so late
your mind it changed
you’re on your way
my words stacked up high on your
openness
and hey
you were so brave
cos you took on my sharp tongue
and
all it had to say
it wasn’t my place
won’t you wait
just through the day
and your interest did fade
you’re on your way
won’t you wait
i know it’s getting so late
your mind it changed
you’re on your way
