You say 'i've found your place in me has grown too small to fit
And still grows smaller everyday in retrospect.'
The me in you has changed
The you in me still stays the same
Each has no bearing on the other
We play house and swear to end
This congenital heart defect here
But it won't end with me
Because all I know about love
I learned from household names
And voices that keep me up at night
And I'll teach my son about love with household names
And voices to keep him up at night
A son named self-fulfilling prophecy
A son named self-defeating prophecy
Before I know it I hear my own son's voice screaming:
You. I learned by watching you
'I need to know that what you took was everything we had, but monday morning quarterbacks just focus on the bad. But it was good, my friend, wasn't it'.
