An Open Letter

you let yourself go

you let yourself go

those days are gone

those days are gone

called up my mother and my mother said kid,

you're too old for me to handle your shit

sleeping through your shift,

you're sleeping through your shift,

giving up what I tried to give you,

can I sit down and just trust you're ok?

I can't even count how many goddamn days

I've been up sick for you

remember you're not getting saved by no one

well fine, true

like you let yourself go

you let yourself go

these days are gone

these days are gone

called in the middle of the night like hey,

I think I need to be saved

It's like 3 am and the bars all closed

and the streets too cold

look at the mess I've made

anyway, they say you're too busy

trying not to feel yourself

you're killing yourself

and when they tried to help,

didn't go well

another story to tell

like you let yourself go

you let yourself go

these days are gone

these days are gone
