Annabel’s Dilemma

Lyrics

[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
