Mixed Blessings Lyrics

What have you been carrying around

You should put it down where you found it

You hesitate saying work's great to your dad on the phone

He don't know liquor pours like a fountain

Swallow words fast, pour the drinks back

Words you don't say betray you

Now you lie here in your old fear

Much too comfortable to save you

Laugh, cry or scream for me

Whatever you need

To open your eyes and see

Mixed blessings like shared trauma

Confessional nirvana

Speak your truth if you wanna

Don't care if you killed someone

Or just resent your mama

I got time

Rearrange your deranged mind

Baby I got time

Mixed blessing

To have to tell your body to rest so you don't drop dead

Mixed blessing

Feeling sick reminding you to take a goddamn breath

Get up out of your head and be yourself

Stop asking what that means to everyone else

Get self care back in your rolodex

You're just as worthy working hard or working less

In a suit and tie or a slutty dress

Get peace of mind, peace to the rest

Laugh, cry or scream for me

Whatever you need

To open your eyes and see

Mixed blessings like shared trauma

Confessional nirvana

Speak your truth if you wanna

Don't care if you killed someone

Or just resent your mama

I got time

Rearrange your deranged mind

Baby I got time

Whatever you need

Swallow words fast, pour the drinks back

Now you lie here in your own fear

Laugh, cry or scream for me

Whatever you need

Open your eyes and see

Mixed blessings like shared trauma

Confessional nirvana

Speak your truth if you wanna

Don't care if you killed someone

Or just resent your mama

I got time

Rearrange your deranged mind

Baby I got time

Baby I got time

Baby I got time
