In Remission

When I cry
I cry in glitter
I shake and shiver
About you
Just say that you
Want me to leave
In early grades
I remember being bitter
Losing a lot, the quiver
Wrinkles end one day
I apperceive I apperceive
You can't smile
We all suffered the beat
To say that I'm not the one
That you want me to be
I can be
And yes I cry
I cry in glitter
Counting on you and me further
Hanging on by the bannisters
Baby I
The mournings took a while
It took some time for dawn
To reach those nights and
I'll be alright
So when you die
Life gets better inside
Leaving my worry
To extradite
In another country
I got a call
Calling me by my real name
A picture
Of her hung below the sconce
Hid behind all the flames
My mother cried
She couldn't get there in time
Now up above in the winds that she loves
Parked in the suns
I keep on trying
Trying, trying
I keep on trying
I keep on trying
Tender and might
Losing someone at sight
But finding out a minute later
That night
Holding my mother, her sister
From falling apart
Yes I cry
I cry in glitter
I stay strong
I just had to be for her
