it’s easy to say that I’ve solved all my problems
eight hours away in my therapist’s office
but I don’t think I can take Thanksgiving
October’s over next week and I’m scared shitless
that 14 year old me will show up in the kitchen
I don’t think I can take Thanksgiving
take Thanksgiving
I can bring the pie
I can pass the peas
I can bite my tongue
say thank you and please
I can roll my eyes at all their opinions
about the songs that I’m writing and the way I’m living
but I don’t think I can take Thanksgiving
take Thanksgiving
take Thanksgiving
