day drinking and listening to Title Fight Lyrics

Fifty-four years old

And for the first time in your life

Your mother sees you

Its an odd realization

That that's the thing that you've been missing

The only thing that you wanted all along

To be seen

And it doesn't feel like a relief

To finally be seen

It feels mean

Like huh

Turns out you knew what I wanted

And you waited till the very last moment to give it to me

I was prepared for more cruelty

I was sure she would get in one final zinger

About how I let her down

And about how I was fat and stupid and to tall to be an effective lindy-hopper

How I was needy

And a burden

And an embarrassment

All that I was ready for

I was not ready for

I see you
