Soul Khan - Morning Alone lyrics
rate meHer family is three cats
A picture of her dead husband
Regrets nothing and she means that
Because she wanna be something
Other than the other half
Of another man
Why repeat that?
She’s got her own life now,
Sleeps alone right now
Everyday's a weight lifted off her bones right now
Can’t let her friends know right now
It's only been a month
How’d you let him go right now?
She lost him when it was a tossup between
A ventilator and a paper saying do not resuscitate him
Her world detonated to dust
Snuck away and lit up something that was mentholated
And puffed
They wanna stand by the widow
Only when she sags like a willow
She almost laughs at the casket like,
Now why the hell I have to buy a dead man a pillow?"
They say this is the hard part
The wounds that never close
And even if they don't scar
Everyone still wows
So she waits
She waits between space
And the taste of the morning alone
So she waits she waits
She waits between space
And the taste of the morning alone
Now she's wondering
Where’s the long term struggle
Only thing buggin her is the crossword puzzle
What’s a five letter word?
You’re supposed to feel
When a loss has occurred
But before you've healed
That’s grief
But it's still not taking effect in her chest
So she still not breaking
Might say she's a still life painting
Put her anywhere but she's still not changing
Cafe, coffee from Malta
Ashtray looking like the rock of Gibraltar
Thinking bout the path they walked from the altar
Her shrink tried to put her onto Cymbalta
That’s for depressed folks
Might as well have told her ass to take a Mentos
And get ghost 'cause she ain't had a tear roll
Eyes dry as the pearls in her ear lobes, where'd she get those?
That was for their anniversary
Before the surgery he said he fought worse back in Germany
Don’t worry he said it's not gonna stop me
I’ll be back for the crosswords and coffee
She tried to sip but her bottom lip's trembling
Remembering what she probably should have said to him
That’s a chance that she's never gonna get again
Then it settles in and she breaks down
They say this is the hard part
The wounds that never close
And even if they don't scar
Everyone still wows
So she waits
She waits between space
And the taste of the morning alone
So she waits she waits
She waits between space
And the taste of the morning alone
Alone alone
