"johnny gown"
I held my breath for you
until you said you were through
we spoke of death
as if he was somebody that we knew
I flung my words ’round the kitchen
but nothing stuck like glue
everybody thinks I’m doing well
can’t tell
I’m barely respiring
the doctor wrote me a letter
the flowers dropped like flies
the johnny gown they gave me matched my eyes
(to my surprise!)
I flung my heart on the dresser
sewed it back to my sleeve
feeling all these feelings in real time
fights the disease
but I’m tired of trying
ask me in the morning
how I’m doing
if I’m expiring
you’ll see it in my vibe and
the devil’s in the details
when I’m depriving
myself from ever really thriving
I called a cab at midnight
I drank my last dose of gin
I lost my patience
thinking of what almost could have been
I held the door for you
you told me that we were through
I guess you never know how many times
you’ll say goodbye
