Poor and worse, the widow's daughter Hold your tongue so it won't be harder Work for your pay every god **** day One day you'll move so far Break the rules, all the things they have done Don't tell her know she exceeds all expectations Pots and pans, blankets, shirts, the whole house Paint it all red to match her hard head If you were from a different place Maybe you could occupy a space only big enough for you If you were from a different time Would you take the chance to rewind Just to take in the view It doesn't feel right to say that you're gone It doesn't feel like the end of the song I keep on waiting for you to prove us all wrong I'll never hold a grudge again

Widow's Daughter (12/14/2019)
Poor and worse, the widow's daughter Hold your tongue so it won't be harder Work for your pay every god **** day One day you'll move so far Break the rules, all the things they have done Don't tell her know she exceeds all expectations Pots and pans, blankets, shirts, the whole house Paint it all red to match her hard head If you were from a different place Maybe you could occupy a space only big enough for you If you were from a different time Would you take the chance to rewind Just to take in the view It doesn't feel right to say that you're gone It doesn't feel like the end of the song I keep on waiting for you to prove us all wrong I'll never hold a grudge again
I eventually let go of my grudge against her, and now I hold a new one on her behalf.
