Time still
Changes everything

Even if you choose
To stay still

Remember to smile,
Remember to brush your teeth,
Remember to wash your face,
Remember to have clean clothes,
Remember to never be late to work,
Remember to be a good wife,
Remember to be a good mother,
Remember to not be selfish,
Remember to love yourself,
Remember to clean the house,
Remember to wash the dishes,
Remember to get enough sleep,
Remember to wake up in time,
Remember to open your eyes,
Remember to smile,
Remember to brush your teeth,
Remember to pick up your feet,
Remember to breathe,
Remember how to be a good mother,
Remember how to be a good wife,
Remember to be yourself at work,
Remember to not be late,
Remember to take time for yourself,
Remember to not be selfish,
Remember to pay your bills,
Remember to clean the house,
Remember to do all the laundry,
Remember to pick up your arms,
Remember to be present,
Remember to smile.

I am trying not to change
In the way rocks remain forever
Only weathered
I am made of flesh, bone, and blood
But I am still finding pieces of myself
Blown away

I wanted to be the falling star,
In someones pocket,
Never to fade away.

I remember everything I wanted to forget
Even the dew drops that sat on leaves outside of the window
The worst day of my life
I forget everything I wanted to remember
You, you, you
Everything about you.

Small things only mattered now
We take pieces of ourselves for granted
I am telling you
When you lose chunks so big
A quiet night in
With small conversation
Is something special and dear to you
I wish I could give you my eyes
To see what I have seen

But then maybe
You'd just give them back to me
I think that's why most of the time
I would rather be asleep
Small things only mattered now.

Day in
Day out
Day in
Day out
Day in
Day out

I want to lay down in between blades of grass
I want to be as small
I dont want to see spend my life
Working
Working
Living in between

Day in
Day out
Day in
Day out
Day in
Day out
Day in
Day out
