Evergreen

I know it's probably sentimental
But I always miss the way
You used to smile in the morning
As we faced the coming day
It's the pulling through
"I gotta prove" to give to someone else
I hope you never miss the feeling
I hope you never lose yourself

It's been a while
Since I woke up in your mother's house
And made my bed
I hope the healing got easier after I left
Maybe it's a point of view I wasn't used to
Maybе it was learning how to lose

On the day wе crashed your car
I swear I felt your spirit change
The way the years had caught up to you
I watched that smile fade away
Maybe it's different now
Maybe he got you out
Like I never could
I hope I'm someone you think about

Since I woke up in your mother's house
And made my bed
I hope the healing got easier after I left
Maybe it's a point of view I wasn't used to
Maybe it was learning how to lose
Heard you break down on the phone
After he knocked you out
You said "I can't help but love him"
But I have my doubts
Hate that I walked away
Wish I would have stayed
But I'm glad to hear you're doing okay

The world is this worst-case color scheme
This grayscale path laid in front of me
I've already seen what I need to be
I found a peace in your reverie
But I don't think I'll see you again
Maybe it's all for amends
But I hope your kids know
The pain you had to outgrow

Since I woke up in your mother's house
And made my bed
I hope the healing got easier after I left
Maybe it's the point of view I wasn't used to
Maybe it was learning how to lose
Driving home from the fur con; said I was gay
You swore that you'd treat me no other way
Nicki Minaj on the radio
Kids with no place to call home
I'll always hold that moment close

Since I woke up in your mother's house
In your mother's house
