Developing a Treaty - Music & Lyrics by Joe Skager and Dan Albert
Developing a treaty between myself and I.
Divising a blueprint bonding my heart and mind.
Connecting vital organs so my body won’t divide.
And my brain will surrender to you, because I told it to.
I tear myself apart. I tear my seams apart. I’m waiting for you to come sew me up.
You know love treats me right, regardless of the giver but I’d rather you say I was enough.
Because I am sick of all these voices saying you’re never going to be enough.
I am sick of all these voices saying you’re never going to be enough.
I’m calling all resistance to stop me in my tracks,
yet I don’t listen to reason because the chance I won’t win back.
Connecting both our bodys so our voices will collide.
A melody so brilliant we can’t help but shield our eyes.
I tear myself apart. I tear my seams apart. I’m waiting for you to come sew me up.
You know love treats me right, regardless of the giver but I’d rather you say I was enough.
Because I am sick of all these voices saying you’re never going to be enough.
I am sick of all these voices saying you’re never going to be enough.
