When I was a little girl, like really little like eight or so, I was playing in my father's study, a place in the house I wasn't supposed to go. My father fancied himself a sailor. His study was filled with nautical decor. He kept a boat in a bottle on the top of a shelf and it shattered on the ground when I slammed the door. I told my mother everything, I told her I was so so sorry. She told me don't cry when he comes home tonight we can make everything okay, this is all we have to say, "We don't remember a boat in a bottle. It must have fallen of its shelf alone. We know you loved it, we're so sad its broken, but neither one of us was even home." And it's our word, yes our word, against his. So I hid screw ups from my father. Made up school awards to please my mom. Whatever made the steak taste, whatever kept the waters calm. I was told to keep their secrets, and in turn they'd keep mine. As I got older I got dumber. I couldn't help but cross the line.

For the Record started playing and I was like "36 questions... that sounds familiar" then this song plays and I'm like "OHHH"

I'd like to draw attention that although this song uses gendered language, the overturn of Roe v Wade effects trans, nonbinary and gender non-conforming people, but the highest at risk of us is low income black and brown people with uteruses. 

Thank you for the support on this song-
I brought this song up to my team before it was even finished being written and they thought it was urgent that we get it out as soon as possible. I recorded this that day and got it back from being mixed the next day.

This is the reason I make music. To send a message and express my raw emotions regardless of what people think. Fuck the Supreme Court all the way. Fuck this white supremacist country all the way. We need radical change and we need it now.

I love you guys and I am here with you.

lyrics:

I think I really miss my bed
Oh when, oh when will the nightmare end?
I had it good, I had it good
And yet I left and can't retrace my steps
My steps

You’re gonna be eaten by a coyote
Run little one
Though the pack may follow
Two quite thin, their brother fatter
You can still win, just gotta be faster

Run for the yard
They’ve barred up the gutter
That was our route better find another
Was that a rabbit?
Really not
Like the one I’ve seen on a cereal box

And the birds don’t talk
Like the ones on screen
Have they really domesticated me?
And the birds don’t talk
Like the ones on screen
Have they really domesticated me?

(instrumental)

Cotton tail gonna end up in jail
Wrong place wrong time
Bad tune but it rhymed
And lined up perfectly to blame
The one who is far too tame
And he say:

Out, let me in, let me in, let me out
Stop telling me all about your problems
I been to hell, still in, get me out
Whatever they are I don’t know how to solve 'em

Out, let me in, let me in, let me out
Stop telling me all about your problems
I been to hell, still in, get me out
Whatever they are I don’t know how to solve 'em

Say, is that the kid from the milk carton?
Can I do anything when I’m also missing?
Something tells me kid
Never learned to swim
But can I do anything when I’m also drowning?

(instrumental)

Think I forgot a couple things
My brain is still at home
Home's far away
I really thought that life was one big race
But now I know it's one big chase

You can still win, just gotta be faster
You can, you can, you can, you can win

You can still win, just gotta be

I think I really miss my bed
Oh when, oh when will the nightmare end?
I had it good, I had it good
And yet I left and can't retrace my steps

Think I forgot a couple things
My brain is still at home (stop telling me all about your problems)
Home's far away
I really thought that life was one big race
But now I know it's one big chase (oh)

You’re gonna be eaten by a coyote
Run little one
Though the pack may follow
Two quite thin, their brother fatter
You can still win, just gotta be

You’re gonna be eaten by a coyote
Run little one
Though the pack may follow
Two quite thin, their brother fatter
You can still win, just gotta be

You can still win, just gotta be

Oh, the air is thick
Kinda makes me sick
Can I give CPR when I'm suffocating?

And the birds don't sing
Like the ones on screen
Have they really domesticated me? (I can still win, just gotta be)
Have they really domesticated me? (I can still win, just gotta be)
Have they really domesticated me? (I can still win, just gotta be)

Have they really domesticated me? (faster!)

Lyrics :

[MICHAEL]
I am hanging in the bathroom at the biggest party of the fall
I could stay right here or disappear, and nobody'd even notice at all

I'm a creeper in a bathroom 'cause my buddy kinda left me alone
But I'd rather fake pee than stand awkwardly, or pretend to check a text on my phone

Everything felt fine when I was half of a pair
Now through no fault of mine, there's no other half there

Now I'm just Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom, at a party
Forget how long it's been
I'm just Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
No you can't come in!
I'm waiting it out 'til it's time to leave
And picking at grout as I softly grieve
I'm just Michael who you don't know, Michael flyin' solo, Michael in the bathroom by himself
Oh, by himself

I am hiding, but he's out there, just ignoring all our history
Memories get erased, and I'll get replaced, with a newer, cooler version of me
And I hear a drunk girl sing along to Whitney through the door - I wanna dance with somebody!
And my feelings sink, 'cause it makes me think: now there's no one to make fun of drunk girls with anymore!

Now it's just Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
I half regret the beers
Michael in the bathroom, Michael in the bathroom at a party
As I choke back the tears
I'll wait as long as I need, until my face is dry
Or I'll just blame it on weed, or something in my eye!
I'm just Michael who you don't know, Michael flyin' solo
Michael in the bathroom by himself!

Knock, knock, knock, knock
They're gonna start to shout soon
Knock, knock, knock, knock
Oh hell yeah, I'll be out soon
[MICHAEL + ENSEMBLE]
Knock, knock, knock, knock
[MICHAEL]
It sucks you left me here alone-
[MICHAEL + ENSEMBLE]
Knock, knock, knock, knock
[MICHAEL]
Here in this teenage battle zone-
[MICHAEL + ENSEMBLE]
Clang, clang, clang, clang
[MICHAEL]
I feel the pressure blowing up-
[MICHAEL + ENSEMBLE]
Bang, bang, bang, bang
[MICHAEL]
My big mistake was showing up-
[MICHAEL + ENSEMBLE]
Splash, splash, splash, splash
[MICHAEL]
I throw some water in my face
And I am in a better place
I go to open up the door
But I can't hear knocking
Anymore
 

And I can't help but yearn
For a different time
And then I look in the mirror
And the present is clearer
And there's no denying, I'm just-

At a party
Is there a sadder sight than-
*hums*
Michael in the bathroom at a party
This is a heinous night
I wish I stayed at home in bed watching cable porn
Or wish I offed myself instead
Wish I was never born!
I'm just Michael who's a loner
So he must be a stoner
Rides a PT Cruiser
God he's such a loser
Michael flyin' solo
Who you think that you know
Michael in the bathroom by himself
Oh, by himself
Oh, by himself
All you know about me is my name
Awesome party
I'm so glad I came

i don't have anything funny to say here expect, if you hurt my son i will cut you.
