lyrics

I heard from someone you can’t both love and control
That wasn't you but I thought it was possible
Different stories will be told
As long as nothing breaks your hold

T-t-t-tears in your eyes, hand on my shoulder, deny what you’ve heard
Hand on your heart cause you're so lost for words
as your hand slides down my back
I try to slide right past

As your hand slides down my back
I learn to deal with that
As your hand slides down my back
I learn to deal with that

It doesn't always hurt but it's still control
It's petty things that add up, always uncomfortable
I know stopping them is a lot to ask
If I ever leave and there's a reason to come back
I swear
I'll come

Always told to speak up until you do
In the abstract, there’s nothing wrong with you
But the structures I may upset
Are not ready to come apart yet
that may
never come

I know what you will say if it's ever expressed
I know it’s not really control it’s just a way to protect
And I project
I’m sorry for everything I said but
You can’t make it leave
You can’t take it from me

I spend too long talking about my feelings
So tell me how your day was and that’s our evening
Maybe a song I can throw on
So nothing will go wrong?

As your hand slides down my back
Say nothing until after the fact
As your hand slides down my back
I’ll learn to deal with that

It’s understandable, you’re paranoid paranoid paranoid
Afraid of losing control like I’m Icarus when I’m walking out that front door
It’s understandable. you’re paranoid paranoid paranoid
Afraid of losing control

about

Fell From The Tree Rochester, New York

I fell from a tree.
I am in a fog and I catastrophize.
I am not ENOUGH, but that's ok.

Now I find Answers in Between
