Grandma’s House

I got a text last night in the family chat

Grandma’s selling her house- already knew that 

And they took photos for the buyers page 

I looked at every one with a blurry gaze 

The weirdest part

Was to watch her have to go restart

What’s really hard is growing up means growing apart 

I couldn't sleep last night, tried the usual hack 

Found my happy place- dialed five years back

Dad moved away last May from the first home I had 

With every little change, I've started to lose track 

The weirdest part was to watch him have to go restart

What’s really hard is growing up means growing apart 

Learning all the ways to take out a knot in your throat 

Learn how to cope

You need to say something you don't wanna hear

They don't need to know

Hold your tongue and go home 

You don't have to grow 

Watch another show and shut your eyes 

It's a soft spot, avoiding the deep talk  

The weirdest part was to watch us have to go restart

What’s really hard is growing up means growing apart
