Swan Song

Every single step creeks in this house
There’s nothing you can do to turn the volume down
Never wanted to see myself like this
Backing down, I’m always running out of breath
I may not be Einstein, but I’m wondering why
I tried so hard to be your mommy in this mess
When I’m sinking down to this
Don’t get so worked up
It’s only tomorrow
And there’s something kinda romantic
About a day this bad
It’s all become so cinematic
Because the truth is just too sad
The only way I know to live through it
Is to piss and moan and close my eyes
The days are getting longer
The world is getting better
We’re all just getting weirder
No sense in pressing harder
Don’t get all spun out
It’s only a future
