I see the pattern underneath your skin 
you say you're waiting for a decision, 
but we both know that there's no revelation 
suffocating under your expectation. 

you got something on the tip of your tongue, 
you've grown a spine since you've been home 
but I've been here too many times before I won't argue the point 
of letting go. 
just let go. 

You know 
I'd do anything for you. 
But something's been tearing at you 
(the [bad word] that you couldn't say) 
If its between me and you, 
I'm in the way. 

(just when I think its buried 
I'm pulling teeth out 
I'm making sure that 
I'm carrying everything; 
dependents. 
I'm not repentant. 
are you happy? 
are you happily coping, 
coping with seeming, 
seemingly knowing, 
knowing that nothing will ever change?) 

You know
