I Died
2:30 pm, I jumped off the welfare wagon
To meet you for lunch. you sit like a Thai princess
Cold and captivating. you divulge your latest secret.
So sinister I cannot repeat
From my eyes flows glacier water.
From my soul, sick obscenities.
I died eating french fries
In the restaurant on the corner,
Where you broke me heart.
I cried 'cause I bit my tongue
Knowing the truth would wash over you
Like a rash.
Annihilation of my self-respect and cash flow
Before my eyes - right here in this booth.
Through this blinding hatred I see a lady on my right.
She winked at me and said, "run for your life!"
From my eyes flows glacier water.
From my soul, sick obscenities.
I died eating french fries
In the restaurant on the corner,
Where you broke me heart.
I cried 'cause I bit my tongue
Knowing the truth would wash over you
Like a rash.
I hereby use my glacier water
To wash away the remorse and the stain.
Behind these eyes I'm my mother's daughter.
Hard, hidden shame
And you'll never see me again
