They say that if we carry the weight of the world together - our muscles can’t be strained
Today I’d rather be crushed beneath the earth than ask someone to stay with me
Doctor, Doctor - I’m not right, help me to get my shit together
Please don’t change my pills again, this season might get better
I’ll choke each capsule down till hatred becomes dull
My world goes dull
It will sharpen every time I wake up, quiet and alone
Wait for me, wait for me - I think I may get happy again
Pray for me, pray for me - I think I may get better again
I enjoy everything and I enjoy the birds I watch, they keep me company cause I don’t always have a lot
Wait for me, wait for me - I hope to God I’m happy again
We used to pass every day outside, talking and watching birds
But I swear every one of them flew away the day the overdose took her
Doctor, Doctor - It’s so quiet - how do I make them sing again?
Lately cigars and TV reruns have been my only friends
Each day I face the choice of Nicotine or bread
I must be fed
They will claim my spending money, either way, till my life ends
Wait for me, wait for me - I think I may get happy again
Pray for me, pray for me - I think I may get better again
I enjoy everything and I enjoy the birds I watch, they keep me company cause I don’t always have a lot
Wait for me, wait for me - I hope to God I get happy again
I have no emergency contact, I have no country’s respect
I have just 15 minutes to talk about my favorite symptoms
Wait for me, wait for me - I think I may get happy again
Pray for me, pray for me - I think I may get better again
I enjoy everything and I enjoy the birds I watch, they keep me company cause I don’t always have a lot
Wait for me, wait for me - I hope to God I get happy again
I enjoy everything and I enjoy the birds I watch

I tried my whole life to be you
I bled but in different colors
I tried to find words to tell you
I'm not the same as the others
I tried my whole life to be you
I bled but in different colors
I tried to find words to tell you
I'm not the same as the others
(Everything has been desaturated)
I wrote the songs that you wanted
I burned the ones that I needed
(I'm starting to see in color again)
They told me to talk about it
When I was hurt I retreated
We can talk about this over the music, or we could not
I know I wasn't the best child for you
I was a shitty person too
But when I'm done turning into this work of art
I hope you still appreciate me
I tried my whole life to be you
Being a clone isn't special
I kept your spirit’s appearance
My body turned into rubble
I built the clone that you wanted
Our playdates empty and quiet
Night walks becoming our outlet
Floodwaters turning to blankets
(I made you something, I hope you like it)
I left the clone that you asked for
On gravel roads in the summer
(If you still love me, I think you'll love it)
It only surfaced on Sundays
Nothing they said made it better
We can talk about this over the music, or we could not
I know I wasn't the best child for you
I was a shitty person too
But when I'm done turning into this work of art
I hope you still appreciate me
Appreciate me
I will bless and brush this barren canvas with hope and hues that make a difference
Whatever other people expect me to be is going to have to be shelved for a minute - no - a lifetime
This life is mine and from now on I will live it to make BOTH you and I proud
That colorless clone sank into the bottom of a gray paint can and that is where we’ll bury him
I tried my whole life to be you
Being a clone isn't special
