about

Written for my daughter, ending a bad marriage to a man who didn't deserve the air in her lungs in his own lungs to begin with.

lyrics

When it’s almost time to leave
Almost time to give yourself to grieve
Nowhere’s harder to be than here

When it’s time to watch him go
There’s never words to make the seconds slow
Only time to keep your head and breathe

Not telling your friends you're still in love
And it gets so bad
You want it to swallow you up
And it sits so unfair
You’re too young to have had enough

When all there's left is air
Breath is gone but his scent still in the air
There’s only time to see him leave
