“I'm here with the cause, I'm holding the torch
In the corner of your room- can you hear me?
And when you're dancing and laughing, and finally living,
Hear my voice in your head and think of me kindly.”

For the rest of my life,
admitting the best is behind me Now I'm drunk and afraid
Wishing the world would go away
What's the point of singing songs
If they'll never even hear you?”

Now that I can hear all your poison prose
Now that I can talk with my tongue unfroze
I'm not so sure of Santa or the buck tooth fairy
There are no words for me inside your dictionary”
