Happy Ending
Jacqueline Carlson
So scared of getting old
I watch my life unfold (from the background)
In retrospect it's funny
I thought that I could be somebody
But now I'm right back where I started
And I've never been so broken-hearted
Do you know what my greatest fear is?
A part of me is permanently hardened
I turn to the little things
To take me far away from this place
It's so embarrassing how
You are a part of me still
I went and gut myself out
Ready to die on that hill
Meet me on the way down
I know that you never will
It's so embarrassing how
You are a part of me still
