You said that getting better
Is like a spiral staircase
Retreading the same old ground there
With a little more height and a little more grace
I am stuck in a time loop
I'm an island, I'm running on a treadmill
The unstoppable force and the immovable object
I'm Sisyphus' rock rolling back down the hill
Like a honeybee killing itself to get the last sting
I'm a car wreck so bad it's backing up half the interstate
I used to have my shit together
I used to power through
But right now I can't
And it's affecting you
I'm wondering when you'll get
Tired of all my whining
I'm worried I won't catch up
You're above me smiling
You're the motivation
And you're the silver lining
The work is never done
But fuck it, I'll keep climbing
ย
You grew with a family
Who loved you and touched you gently
You're so sweet, you're so well-rounded
Your tenderness is new
I'm learning it through you
'Cause I am not used to safety
I'm so stuck, so sensitive lately
You're patient, you're so good with me
I'm giving it time, I'm gonna climb
I'm trying to get my shit together
I'm trying to power through
But right now it's hard
And it's affecting you
I'm wondering when you'll get
Tired of all my whining
I'm worried I won't catch up
You're above me smiling
You're the motivation
And you're the silver lining
The work is never done
But fuck it, I'll keep climbing
I'm wondering when you'll get
Tired of all my crying
For holding me in my bed
For pulling me out of hiding
You're the motivation
And you're the silver lining
The work is never done
But fuck it, I'll keep climbing
