I know what it's like to hold your breath But shutting down will move your suffering to the next I miss you like my childhood friends But just like them I don't want you back I've counted the dents in my ceiling Twelve and a half times too often It took me 23 years to get it My parents don't have a movie marriage I know what it's like to blame yourself For every change out of your hands The size of your palms, the width of your hips If you should respect a thing it's this I was tired, went and and rested Weary-eyed, just for a second Knowing you'll be there like you always were I'm all that once was but I am not my past I'm more than the imprints other people left But change is around us, I feel it somehow The time for the time to act is now
