Dear Dad, I have to say something.

1 Feel the wind twist and dance around,

2 Because we all know I'll dance with

3 To the invisible beat,

4 Stumbling inside my eardrums

5 Like lover boy humming love notes.

6 I should be over this yearning,

7 Even on those nights where

8 You beat on my window.

9 I should tell myself to pick up that lighter, and

10 Set that dance floor on fire then

11 Maybe I wouldn't want to drown in

12 The memories hiding inside it.

13 It's as if the memories fit snug enough

14 To make the tiles flame retardant.

15 How infuriating.

16 I want to smash the disco ball, and

17 Scream I'm done with reality,

18 I'm done with you.

19 I'm done with pretending your heart bleeds for me,

20 I'm done with imagining you miss me or you love me.

21 I'll leave this behind,

22 Hello...I only have two years left come

23 Sweet, sweet September.

24 I'll walk out that door.

25 Maybe you'll will miss me then.
