Long Time Coming

Maria Mena · Apparently Unaffected [2005]

Your patronizing stare can watch me heal.

What I would give for you to take the wheel,

It's been a long time coming.



The strong resemblance to my mothers womb,

Is the reason why I will not leave this room,

It's been a long time coming.



The lack of self-esteam has grown on me,

I'm not as strong I appear to be,

It's been a long time coming.



And my lullaby sounds more like distant screams,

I wake up sleep-deprived after every dream,

It's been a long time coming.



Aaaah



My flesh makes little sins compared to yours,

I wish my restlessness would open doors,

It's been a long time coming.
