The Sharp Hint of New Tears

"The Sharp Hint Of New Tears"

On the way home

This car hears my confessions

I think tonight I'll take the long way

This weather

The wind outside is biting

It has left me feeling tired & exposed

You've been asking me to bleed

It seems these kinds of questions

Come too easy to you now

Your lack of shame comes naturally

I should not be surprised

I should have seen it sooner

You expect me to apologize

For things that you've done wrong

While you're inciting others

You're owning up to nothing

And I wish that I was gone

Because you're not going anywhere

This damp air

Is fighting my defroster

My sighs they ring victorious

& fog this tinted glass

It's clouded

& so is my head

The hint of these new tears are sharp

I try to choke them back

But it's useless

I am useless against them

They are beating me with ease

On the way home

This car hears my confessions

I think tonight I'll take the long way

You expect me to apologize

For things that you've done wrong

While you're inciting others

You're owning up to nothing

And I wish that I was gone

Because you're not going anywhere

On the way home

This car hears my confessions

I think tonight I'll take the long way
