you're a few years overdue
and i've spent them waiting here for you
now your charity's refused
i can name a penance for abuse

twenty four years overdue
what kind of role-model are you?
very least learn not to do
i think i might be over you

do you hope i won't
learn to make
the same mistakes that you would
make me aware
my only fear
my only hope is letting go

went on a limb for you
capsized when i turned twenty (two)
did it burn as bad for you?
no bottle serves to suit my wounds

do you hope i won't
learn to make
the same mistakes that you would make
me aware
my only fear
my only hope is letting go
my only hope is letting go...

you're a few years overdue
and i've spent them waiting here for you

dear matthew j. frederick:
i love you
i'm not waiting
i swear
