comfort food

Oh I'm broken

Half of the things that I use to be

Small and golden

Cupped in my hands you fit perfectly

Treasured, woven

Into the seams of this family

Now a charm, a token

I'll remember your face

For an eternity

You were tied down by a string

Lift off the ground, floating

I'll count my steps

And share them all with you

Eat all my words, comfort food

Memories melting away

Years start to blend and I'm getting old

Never be able to say

All of the things I want you to know

Bittersweet in my mouth

These words are too swallow

Rotten teeth they fall out

But try as I might

I'm not letting go

You were tied down by a string

Lift off the ground, floating

I'll count my steps

And share them all with you

Eat all my words, comfort food

You were tied down by a string

Lift off the ground, floating

I'll count my steps

And share them all with you

Eat all my words, comfort food
