Damn Near Seaworthy

2014


I envy your ability to make it my fault/
but I won’t reciprocate the things that hurt me most,
after all, you asked me in an early morning call/
to promise never to let you lose control/
and your voice trembled so/
and it shook me through my soul,
Sister, I’m every bit as scared as you could be/
lost in a sea of alcohol/
you’ll be brought with the waves to crash back into me.
