Hold It For Her

My future self, she reaches back And hands me her grief I take it well but it hurts like hell Some days it must get too much to bear So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her I keep wasting time Grieving something that hasn't yet come to end And I stay up at night Crying over a parent that isn't dead She comes by a lot She misses my dog So I hold him for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her Her face is mine, with deeper lines She's better, stronger than I am So it must be a lot to come back so often Some days it must get too much to bear So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her I keep wasting time Grieving something that hasn't yet come to end And I stay up at night crying over a parent that isn't dead She comes by a lot She misses my dog So I hold him for her I keep wasting time Grieving something that hasn't yet come to end And I stay up at night crying over a parent that isn't dead She comes by a lot She misses my dog So I hold him for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her It makes it easy on me to feel it Now it's only a little grief that I hold Scared so I only hold in experimental doses One day I might put it down I keep wasting time Grieving something that hasn't yet come to end And I stay up at night crying over a parent that isn't dead She comes by a lot She misses my dog So I hold him for her I keep wasting time Grieving something that hasn't yet come to end And I stay up at night crying over a parent that isn't dead She comes by a lot She misses my dog So I hold him for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her So I hold it for her
