Evenings left on hold, at home alone
Crooked wrists and crooked smile
Shifting pain, the scent of lavender
Map of freckles on your back
Let's write it out
Spin our red thread
How did I
Unwind instead
Making plans
I knew you wouldn't show
Laugh at things he couldn't know
That afternoon and the radio
Half dressed, lost, and out the door
Let's write it out
Find our red thread
How did I
Unwind instead
Cut, splice, replace
The mistakes
Roll back the tape and erase
Change melodies
Change the words
Drown out the hiss that you heard
Forget what you heard
