Thinking

I couldn’t hear through the darkness of the nam-shub
but I did my best to be diligent and learned to don scrubs
not everything’s perfect in this new house though it may look nice
I have to be sure I never make a mistake and check at least twice
I don’t want to leave my mother when I’m all she has here
But I’m changing my ways and making amends, to be clear
Not everything can happen overnight but I’m thinking on things
I know you’re tired of being patient with me but I’ve got strings.
