Poison the Well Loved Ones (Excerpts from Speeches of How Great You Were and Will ...) Lyrics

Sit across from you
why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years
I love trying to make conversation when I could care less of what you're doing (what are you doing?)

And I know you never
cared 'till now
cared 'till now
All my days go back to when you would scream
And it froze me
And it froze me

Guess the screaming
it runs
in the family

You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin until we don't resemble each other anymore

Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for the 20 years.
So now I see the tears welling up, finally you care I've waited
I've waited
I've waited
for this

It's always been over
it's always been over
it's always been over for us
A single tear, a last resort for all who've never felt

You look tired and run-down
Are you even excited to see your baby boy?
Put a razor to the skin until we don't resemble each other anymore

Sit across from you, why are we even here?
There is no way to make up for these 20 years.
If I could flip this table I'd stab you
I'd stab you with every word that lied its way
out of your head.
