I didn't know where I was until a month or so later When I woke up, saw the quilt of steam rise off the radiator Sweating through the layers Stitched in my own hand On and on for acres All I ever wanted was for you to take a second Drop it all to sit with me Waiting in the car wondering if you would address it Or just leave me hurting quietly I needed a change, but I wasn't brave enough I needed a beer and a hug and a way out of the crater I needed a change, so we wouldn't fall out of love I couldn't admit I was crushed by the weight of being strangers I carried on folding clothes alone as if it wasn't treason Acting strong, I just moved along as if it didn't happen Stoic like a captain, no compass in my hand Just hold me till it passes All I ever wanted was for you to take a second Drop it all to sit with me Waiting in the car wondering if you would address it Or just leave me hurting quietly I needed a change, but I wasn't brave enough I needed a beer and a hug and a way out of the crater I needed a change, so we wouldn't fall out of love I couldn't admit I was crushed by the weight of being strangers I needed a change, but I wasn't brave enough I needed a beer and a hug and a way out of the crater I needed a change, so we wouldn't fall out of love I couldn't admit I was crushed by the weight of being strangers
