Household Names

Tony fished his wedding ring, out of the kitchen sink

Afterwards Caleb took me dancing

There are things that I should believe but I could never want to know

The accolades of karaoke and the slideshow

Another dissonant diatribe, remained diligent when the pastor was passing by

Then you pressed into my hand, my first xanax

Talking to the sandwich man, "surely she have would have called if she was contemplating suicide

Then mom died, it gets easier as the years have gone awry

It's my birthday, not that you'd remembered but drink my beer anyway

Guess my name. Been coming here for years, shoplifting after church

If it's all the same, spare me the candles, the prayer and place them on my grave
