When my face is all
changed from the
cruelty of age
I'll still miss you
In a dream,
you forgave me and
I almost did it myself
'Til I woke back up
I'm always
procrastinating
Evading the job of
going through them
boxes in the attic
As long as they're
in the dark
There's a flickering
spark we'd repair
Just wanna talk to you
Wanna talk with
my best friend
Wanna let go of
everything that I carry
Wanna shoulder
some of yours instead
I wanna hurt with you
Hurt with somebody
who understands
Have the strength
to truly like myself
And have the love to
take someone's hand
I was down in the
low lights, getting
hounded by moths
and d***heads
Your uncle came in,
I geared up for
one on the nose
He was somber and
kind as I self-flagellated
and groveled
Told me to come back,
but I cheated and
it's over
Shrinks somehow,
link it all back
to my upbringing
But I don't want an
excuse for my mess
I just wanna talk to you
Wanna talk with
my best friend
Wanna let go of
everything that I carry
Wanna shoulder
some of yours instead
I wanna hurt with you
Hurt with somebody
who understands
Have the strength
to truly like myself
And have the love to
take someone's hand
I wanna talk to you
I wanna talk to you
Oh,
I just wanna talk to you
Only wanna talk to you
Only wanna talk to you
Only wanna talk to you,
talk to you
Seven years wrapped
in youth's great love
Picked me up and
sucked the cancer
from my bones
Your old man loved me
like a son he never had
And I ate him outta
house and home
I have learnt and
I will never stop
learning
My failures are my
prized possessions
I don't deserve
to talk to you
But I hope that
I can root for you
Give 'em hell, darling
