If my life was a flying pirate ship, Pt. 2 Lyrics by Take One One Take

Take One

2024

I awoke on my kitchen floor one day
A cold mug of coffee sitting beside me
Above me was my brand-new roommate by the name of Joy
She had the sense of humor that a devil's advocate would crave
She was in fact, what I tried to suppress, every single day
If I had a fight, she'd tell me to go patch my enemy up
If she saw my art, especially the pieces that I hated
She'd put them up for everyone to see
If I yelled at her because of it
She responded with soft words
Filling my heart with wrathful flames
Yet choking, my mouth with ice
Most importantly, she'd shake me awake
If I'd ever try to return to my pirate ship
Offering me a mug of coffee instead
This happened hundreds, maybe thousands of times
She was always there, even though I was sure she was
Lecturing in her doctorate class
Or getting coffee with someone else
In the end, she knew me
Yet she never, ever gave up on me
Joy and I
Are still roommates to this day
And though I hated her for the longest time
We've surprisingly started to get along
It took 17 years
Yet, finally, we've come to terms
Where I can accept her presence in my life
And sometimes, maybe, even get a little help
To no longer, give up on myself
If my life was a flying pirate ship
Or a civilization on mars
Or an actually good romance movie
It's arguable if that exists
Or anything I ever wanted
I'd let it all go
Unblurring the line of wants and needs
To see my life as not my own
But rather a process to see that I'm not alone
I disembark from my pirate ship
Into a land of partnership
Of sobriety and support
To find a piece of the only peace there truly is
Thank you so much
