Deadlocked

I think it took him a while to understand If he felt doubt he'd just take me by the hand

I know it's taken me a while to understand

How these things, these swirling patterns took my man

He's a man I used to be

But in a lot of ways he's still a part of me

I look back on the woman I've become

But I'm not these loose parts without the sum

All these people and places I've lost are still a part of me

In a deadlocked intersection of who I am and who I used to be

I used to laugh and holler and shout and cry
