the last laugh

I’m hiding underneath the porch

You give me wrinkles on my forehead

You’re breaking off a piece of me

I'm scared of our relationship

But not particularly you

We sadly stick together like honey gorilla glue

I’m keeping track of my fingernails to measure the time that’s passed

We’ve spun around, on this merry go round, the carousel’s final lap

The weeds spring up and the garden dies, been watering all the wrong things

We’ve decomposed our self control, our words have lost their weight

I hated talking to your dad

You didn’t stop picking at your scab

I screamed at you, you screamed back

We’re straight up from a horror film

The walls caved in your room

I never got the chance to trick or treat with you

The punchline hit a year ago, still fighting for the last laugh

We’ve spun around, on this merry go round, the carousel’s final lap

The weeds spring up and the garden dies, that’s just how it is

We’ve decomposed our self control

Our words have lost their weight

If something new ever blooms

Your roots remain

I’ll never be the same

I’ll never be the same

I’ll never be the same
