lyrics

(sick of... sick of...)

sick of being asked if i'm okay by people who need a yes
sick of giving the yes because it's faster than the truth
sick of the word "process" and the word "journey" and the word "healing"
(the word healing)
none of those words were invented by anyone who was in it

i'm not sick of people
(of people)
i'm sick of the vocabulary they were handed

sick of
(sick of, sick of)
every soft word built to make my week smaller
sick of
say something true or say nothing, i can take nothing

my sister says "that sounds hard" and stops
she doesn't fix it, she doesn't reframe it, she just stops
that sentence has done more than three years of the other kind
(of the other kind)
four words. no journey. no process. just: that sounds hard.

teach everyone that sentence
and half of this album stops being necessary
(build, strings entering, tension)

sick of
(sick of, sick of)
every soft word built to make my week smaller
sick of
say something true or say nothing, i can take nothing

(that sounds hard...)
