Long Time Coming

Your patronizing stare can watch me heal

What I would give for you to take the wheel

It's been a long time coming

The strong resemblance to my mother's womb

Is the reason why I will not leave this room

It's been a long time coming

The lack of self-esteem has grown on me

I'm not as strong as I appear to be

It's been a long time coming

My lullaby sounds more like distant screams

I wake up sleep deprived after every dream

It's been a long time coming

My flesh makes little sense compared to yours

I wish my restlessness would open doors

It's been a long time coming
