What can you do?
You can jump off a bridge into my riverbedYou can shove it into your head that circumstances changeYou can go fuck yourself-denial that your range mattersYou can go jump in a lake and swim to my island as the rain patters on the waterOh yes, and you can apologize to my daughter.
What can you do?
Apparently, you can go on enabling bullshitApparently, you can allow your friends to get thrown under the busApparently, you can actually throw your friends under the busApparently, you can *not* communicate that you're feeling betterApparently, you can *not* take into consideration that I might be concernedApparently, you can show that there's not enough that you've learned
What can you do?

It's been 12 days and you don't know what you want?
What can you do?You can realize the transgression and apologizeLook into my eyes and with real compassion tell my your sorry for taking me for grantedFor the us you supplanted for the 'they'You can say, "Hey...I fucked up. You didn't deserve to be treated that way."And then we can talk about if you can stay. And if I can stay. In this.ThisThisThisThisThisThis
