You're a few years overdue
I spent them waiting here for you
Now your charities refuse
I can name a penance for abuse

Twenty four years overdue
What kind of role model are you
Very least
Learned not to do
I think I might be over you

Do you hope I won't learn to make the same mistakes that you would
Make me aware
My only fear
My only hope is letting go

Went on a limb for you
Capsized when I turn twenty two
Did it burn as bad for you
No bottle serves to soothe my wounds

Do you hope I won't learn to make the same mistakes that you would
Make me aware
My only fear
My only hope is letting go
My only hope is letting go

You're a few years overdue
I spent them waiting here for you
