Smaller Than My Mother

He makes me smaller with every embrace that I ask for Sit between the sheets of paper he writes on and I I keep on shrinking and he stays the same I keep on shrinking and he stays the same Keeps every dollar he earns under his pillow while he sleeps Fits me in the palm of his hand and I'm restless oh I keep on shrinking and he stays the same I keep on shrinking and he stays the same He's gonna make me watch him leave Done all the things that he asked of me He makes me fall, makes me fall to my knees Smaller than my mother, he looks down on me He drifts off slowly, it's like he can't talk in silence Kicks me in his sleep as he dreams of another oh I keep on shrinking and he stays the same I keep on shrinking and he stays the same He's gonna make me watch him leave Done all the things that he asked of me He makes me fall, makes me fall to my knees Smaller than my mother, he looks down on me Used up all of my words I can't read him anymore Used up all of my words I can't read him anymore
