hometown hospice

Hometown Hospice

I lived for your permission
I shifted my opinions
If you asked then I commissioned
Anything you’d ever need
Made it a priority
You trade me like an option
To buy or sell at auction
This love is laced with caution
Tape around my mouth again
Incase I try to turn you in

No ones more convoluted
No ones more inconclusive
Drunk on your own delusions
You’re an optical illusion

Don’t make me disappear again, is that what you wanted?
Put on a show for all your friends, does it make you feel honest?
Cause I ran and went off to college and you stayed in hometown hospice
So don’t make me disappear again cause this time I’ll be the one to end
End it all

I won’t come home for Christmas
So please take me off your wishlist
You saw my mom at Mrs Aaron’s, my old neighbors house, and couldn’t help but ask about
If I was doing well, if I’d be back in town
If I was seeing anybody or anything else
She said I moved away, and that I loved LA
I lost a bunch of weight the second I threw you away

No ones more convoluted
No ones more inconclusive
Drunk on your own delusions
You’re an optical illusion

Don’t make me disappear again, is that what you wanted?
Put on a show for all your friends, does it make you feel honest?
Cause I ran and went off to college and you stayed in hometown hospice
So don’t make me disappear again cause this time I’ll be the one to end

End it all
And make you fall back in love Just to lose it all
And make you watch as I go

Don’t make me disappear again, is that what you wanted?
Put on a show for all your friends, does it make you feel honest?
Cause I ran and went off to college and you stayed in hometown hospice
So don’t make me disappear again cause this time I’ll be the one to end
