Lyrics
She's got one foot on the ground. That's one more than
She is somewhat grounded or stable, more than previously.
Before her day. Just crawl back and swallow your pride
Reflecting on past experiences and suggesting retreat and humility.
Like so many pills before this. Girl speak you must
Encouraging the girl to express herself honestly.
Know something more. I know that you must feel
A sense that she holds emotions and there’s an awareness of it.
Something for your presence is coming chilly. Your
Feeling a chilling absence despite her presence.
Motions sadly sober now. Please let yourself cry.
Urging her to allow herself to show emotions and cry.
Prove your miserable existence and I'll believe. I'll
Asking for proof of her pain for validation.
Confess my sin. Choking on the manipulation of
Struggling with guilt due to being manipulated by someone.
Another. Roaming on the plane of no bother. The child
Roaming without concern but realizing the impact of it.
Spoke the truth. "I can't believe I'm dead." So why
Questioning the significance of bothering now, given prior knowledge.
Bother us now. You knew everything except the price of
Knowing a lot but missing the importance of patience.
Haste, so hold your breath to hold his hand. I'm here
Being present and wondering about the absence of someone else.
So where are you? Everything was lost overhead. Above
Feeling loss and confusion despite everything being visible.
The mantle in the depression. Not a single memory to
No meaningful memories left, particularly in moments of betrayal.
Burn in this betrayal. At least nothing that I can
Expressing inability to find anything substantial to hold onto.
Reach. I am still standing, still staring at your
Remaining strong but fixated on someone’s childlike behavior.
Child rolling, playing in your husband's stain. Would
Asking if she would preserve something meaningful for her son.
You make a token for your son of what's left of his
Indicating the extraction of something important or significant.
Teeth pried from the plaster. If he found the weakness
Considering whether weakness could lead to acknowledging pain.
To surrender to pain, can you find the strength to
Challenging her to search for strength to find someone.
Search for him. I am here so where are you. I am still
Expressing presence and seeking someone who seems absent.
Here and I need you.
Declaring a need for someone who is not currently there.
