Enough Already

I learned from losing you
Against all of the odds
That’s it never enough
When someone says
You’ll always be enough
I got trapped by my impatience
To prove that I was capable
Of keeping my commitments
Or being just like everybody else
Impatience
Rarely leads to permanence
I’m always too trusting
Or not trusting enough
I’d balance it out to hear you say
That you learned from giving up

If Only

Only I have myself in mind
Only I can protect what’s mine
(Can’t you accept there’s
Something better out there for you
Don’t let it slip away)
Only I can shut myself inside
(Can’t you accept there’s
Something better out there for you
Don’t let it slip away)
Only I won’t share the place I hide
Can’t you accept there’s
Something better out there for you
Don’t let it slip away
If only I lived a different life
If only I had a little more time
Can’t you accept there’s
Something better out there for you
Don’t let it slip away
If you convinced me that
You’d keep them safe
I would tell you all my secrets
If I believed my life
Would ever change
I would give you full advantage
Uncomfortable in pale and aging skin
(Only I)
But you say you’re not disgusted
(Only I)
I wanna trust but I’ve been burned before
(Only I)
I’ve given up but can you fix me
(Only I)
If you convinced me that
You’d keep them safe
(Only I)
I would tell you all my secrets
(Only I)
If I believed my life
Would ever change
(Only I)
I would give you full advantage
(Only I)

Cleaning House

The layout of my house
Is always changing
I’ve slept in every bedroom
Since you were here
I’ve finally figured out
Where your old couch fits
The Goodwill down the road
In time the colors that we chose
To paint the rooms will fade
The garden that we’ve grown
Will choke and wilt away
This house was never home to you
But it feels like home without you
But it takes it’s toll
Telling myself that
I’m happy alone
If I’m truthful
I’m happy alone
If it means without you
Will I always feel like
I’ll never be whole
Do I need somebody
To reprise the role
I’ll refrain from trying hard
To replace you
I’ll accept you’ll probably
Disappoint me too
I give up
(This house was never home to you)
I’ll never split this house in two
It’s just me, my dogs
(But it feels like home without you)
My band will have to do
This house was never home to you
But it feels like home without you

After a year inside
Of dreaming of my
Future perfect life
I had to let it go
Because I’m afraid
That everyone will know
That I fail every time I try
To restart my life
In a global pandemic
While I’m hiding inside
When a new friend calls
Or an old friend dies
When the seasons change
Or opportunity strikes
I’m inspired to change
But I never get it right
Never get it right
But I can’t face myself
When was the last time I smiled
Only God can erase my sins
But tell that to my inner child
I don’t belong in this body
But I feel trapped in a cycle
That forces me to watch
As I deteriorate slowly
Forget that anyone knows me
Maybe with one more chance
I’ll change
I fail every time I try
To restart my life
In a global pandemic
While I’m hiding inside
When a new friend calls
Or an old friend dies
When the seasons change
Or opportunity strikes
I’m inspired to change
But I never get it right
Never get it right
Never get it right
If I could forget you
Maybe I’d finally feel
The change
But I can’t forgive you
So I guess I’ll always
Feel the same
