A Sordid Ending - Bellows

A sordid ending to a bad rock song and I am bored

And your father doesn’t yell anymore

But he pretends to his friends you weren’t born

Or at least that your band is on tour

Or that you don’t ask for money anymore

We fell asleep in my mini-van watching stars

I never once asked how tired you are

Or if you ever said sorry to your mom

You don’t deserve to be treated like you’re dumb

Even if you’ve been hurting everyone

What can be said inside a peaceful stare is how I want

To disown the friendship we forgot

To never ask you something you won’t confront

To never yell at you again in the yard

Or to hear that I don’t know things are hard
