Remember me for me,
I need to set my spirit free


It's agonizing. It's everything. It's agonizing like everything-like saying goodbye, falling in love, or bettering yourself. It's probably not as bad as everyone thinks.

So while I’m fixing up my bed
So while I’m organizing drawers
Could I just listen to the problems had
With problems of mine?
And what's that note i’m writing there?
Why am I giving you this back?
This was a gift from when we met
Back when I weren't so upset

You called in sick from my funeral
The sight of my body made you feel uncomfortable
You couldn't recognize my shell

My branching off had met an end
From all the weight that made me bend
And when I tried to shed your leaves
I pined for warmth as they said
"Your lack of love for your dear self
Is sapping all of us here out!
Trace my roots back to the ground
Work out the knotholes for yourself"

You called in sick from my funeral
The sight of my family made you feel responsible

And you found the notes I left behind
Little hints and helpless cries
Desperate wishing to be over

I said I’m trapped in my body
And getting deeper every day
They diagnosed me born that way
They say it runs in my family
A conscious erasure of working class background
Where despair trickles down
Imbalanced chemical crutch
Open up, swallow down
I said "Remember me for me
I need to set my spirit free"

You called in sick from my funeral
(You called in sick, you called in sick)
Tradition of closure nearly felt impossible
(You called in sick, you called in sick)
You should have never gave my word to you
Not a cry, not a sound
Might have learned how to swim
Never taught how to drown
I said "Remember me for me"
You watched me set my spirit free
