In a car, not her own
Owned by someone, called her man for all time
On her way to a house
To a couple, she call sir and dear mom
She's afraid, it's her plan
To reveal the disappointing things she's done
Nicotine and all the gin
Why can't thirty years of lying be undone
On a chair, face to face
The achievement of her lifetime is so beautiful
It's okay, let it out
And I knew, she said, she knew that we would help her
No one's mad, only sad
And a heavy weight inside her is gone forever
What is wrong? You're at home
And she went away to where she always wanted
Something in her died so long ago
I thought she'd never come to know
