Your patronizing stare can watch me heal. 
What I would give for you to tae the wheel 
It's just been a long time coming 
The strong resemblance to my mother's womb 
Is the reason why I will not leave this room 
It's been a long time coming 

The lack of self-esteem has grown on me 
I'm not as strong as I appear to be 
It's been a long time coming 

My lullaby sounds more like distant screams 
I wake up sleep deprived after every dream 
It's been a long time coming 

My flesh makes little sense compared to yours 
I wish my restlessness would open doors 
It's just been a long time coming
