everything I know

please don’t mind my loneliness
my loneliness is good
and loneliness is good because of company like you
just think about your longingness
for something that once was
you tore it like a paper
without reason or a cause

I know you wanna keep me close
to take me down some more
I’m no longer as I once was
it’s not like before
you can only try to wipe out my smile
but our little child
well, he has my eyes

I’ll teach him everything I know
it may not be enough
but he’ll be wise enough to see and call your bluff

I know you wanna keep me close
to tear me down some more…

now go back to the ones you know
the only ones you love
your caring, loving parents
that’ve always been above all
and be a daughter all your life
forget you were a wife
as soon as he can walk and talk
he’ll leave you behind
