Bathtub

Take my word for it, I'm not worth it

I ignored you all night and you don't deserve it

Morning, bathtub, my skin soft and hot

I was sure you were right but you're not

I contemplate my ruined fate

Someone will hurt me so bad one day

And you'll resonate or I'll apologize

Or maybe I'll make the same mistake twice

I hide from phone calls under the warm water

Malice desists, no it woefully recurs

And it plays like daytime TV shows, I confuse you

and I tell you not to love me

But I still kiss you when I want to

And I lament, you're innocent

But somehow the object of my discontent

And it's fucked up, I let you in

Even though I've seen what can happen

You make a tape, receive it in the mail

And I force myself busy, the diversion will prevail

And I will swallow all my guilt with little pills and forge my chin up

And I will only think about it in the morning, in the bathtub
