Sucker Punch

It's under shirt sleeves

Bare shoulders and now

Tattoos of the things we love the most

And it's retold with amazing success

And it seems so brave, but it's just a sucker punch

And so I

I glower and plot

I will wreck you

I will wreck you

It's what we loved in this family

Only in my head

It's knees and elbows

Melted down instead

Groups of things you tell yourself

I'm solid, it's just that nobody knows

It's replayed with precision and care

And why are you even talking?

You weren't even there

So I

I glower and plot

I will wreck you

I will wreck you

I will

I will wreck you

It's what we loved in this family

Only in my head

It's knees and elbows

Melted down instead

It's what we loved in this family

Only in my head

It's knees and elbows

Melted down instead

And we're waiting, waiting, waiting

Are you done?

Do you wonder whatever became of this?

Have you ever tried to call?

I won, I tried, I gave it a shot

We've grown, graduate, and married

I would want to know these things

I won, I tried, and I gave it a shot

So we ache to be different

Even though we don't really know how

I won, I tried, and I gave it a shot
