Annabel’s Dilemma
[Verse 1]
There's a little lake of tears in the middle of the kitchen table
And she's watching as another drips from his nose into the deep
And he keeps talking and talking and talking
But talk is cheap and weak and watered down
Just another awkward sound she doesn't need to hear
[Pre-Chorus]
He's just a shadow, only half a man
And she can hardly muster even half a damn about this
Sorry situation, in the back room kids are watching frozen
Fate's our only opponent
[Chorus]
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do girl?
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do now?
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do girl?
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do now?
(Hey)
[Interlude]
(Don't lose, don't lose, don't lose it)
Put your brave face on
[Verse 2]
There's only so many times a grown woman can swallow this Hallowness
Before her itchy trigger finger starts to wake her in the dead of night
And she goes walking and walking and walking
But these old streets don't change, there's no metamorphosis here
Were you really gonna wait until the coast was clear?
Were you really gonna wait, wait, wait?
[Pre-Chorus]
She's just a shadow, only half a human
Living a half life inside the institution of what?
Will she only ever get what she's got?
With the voices in her head, oh screaming
[Chorus]
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do girl?
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do now?
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do girl?
Hey, Annabel, whatcha gonna do now?
[Interlude]
(Don't lose, don't lose, don't lose it)
In agreed on silence
Her hands are shaking to hard to hold a secret cigarette
Strange kind of violence
When the blows never land and the bloods never let
In agreed on silence
Her hands are shaking to hard to hold a secret cigarette
Strange kind of violence
When the blows never land
Annabel, you're one of the best
We'll always love you even if he don't
We'll always love you even when he won't
Oh Annabel, you're one of the best
Only a winner on a losing stresak
And when you can't find strength, doesn't mean your weak
Oh Annabel
These were always someone else's decisions
This was always someone else's life
These were always someone else's decisions
This was always someone else's life
These were always someone else's problems
This was always someone else's wife
This was always someone else's husband
It was always someone else's wife
