letra de bath - leah dunn

Loading...

i woke up to the sound of soap
i left the sink running yesterday
the scent of spring weaving false hope
of keeping time at bay

then i headed to the big room with the books
to find the one i lost yesterday
i was all alone, the librarian was giving me a look
but i found it under a chair and went on my way

i had eight minutes to spare
i should eat because i forgot last night
walked outside and there was water everywhere
people swimming in the light

upstream in the crowd
i picked the wrong shoes to wear
slipped on the ice and i fell down
could hear my mother saying, “life’s not fair.”

life’s not fair
i need to take a bath
i need to take a

i opened the door to the room
my shirt dripped down on the table
i could smell that rich girl’s perfume
she makes me want to swallow a staple
i punched a hole in the wall
three months ago
today i punched a yoga ball
that’s progress if i say so

i met my friend for coffee
she showed up twelve minutes late
we didn’t feel like talking
we sat in the silence we made

then i asked, “how was your morning?”
she turned to ask about mine
i tried to lie and say it was boring
but i collapsed on the table and i cried

yes i cried
i need to take a bath
i need to take a bath
i need to take a bath
i need to take a

went back out in the water
different shoes on my feet
i thought about my father
and how i’ll see him in a week
i was doing chores for my older brother
he likes to walk all over me
like i’m a carpet or a mattress cover
is it sad, sometimes i agree

and am i a b-tch if he deserved it?
it’s not like murder, murder is a crime
downward slope, now i’ve rehe-rs-d this
at least i didn’t fall this time

i never mean to control my lover
or anyone else that i trust
it’s our own flaws that we discover
in the people staring back at us
