Excommunication

Divorce was her idea

but I got a reputation

for every little thing

for wrestling every

kind of bear, meanest

one to fight’s honey

listen closer now

I say a truth you

need to hear

all this reaching out

hysteria is drawing near

I don’t wanna say right

don’t wanna say wrong

I just wanna say done

just wanna say gone

you know how it is at the end—

you start to consider the beginning

all those faces are chains

tryin’ to reel you in

lover in your eye

keeps pulling me

back to place—

this was a favorite once,

now I can’t quite

place the face—

donna wanna say right

don’t wanna say wrong

just wanna say done

just wanna say gone

gone daddy gone
