You're a few years overdue

I spent them waiting here for you

Now your charity's refused

I can name a penance for abuse

Twenty-four years overdue

What kind of role model are you?

Very least, learn not to do

I think I might be over you

Do hope I won't learn to make the same mistakes that you would

Make me aware that only fear

My only hope is letting go

I went on a limb for you

Capsized when I turned twenty-two

Did it burn as bad for you?

No bottle serves to soothe my wounds

Do hope I won't learn to make the same mistakes that you would

Make me aware that 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
