tetherball lyrics
by Ella Boh
[Intro]
"You have to teach her how big girls play"
[Verse I]
Tetherball on the playground turned full mental breakdown
You would've thought someone was dead
Parents getting divorced from a third-party source
Not something you should learn from a friend
I think it really f*cked with my head
[Pre I]
But even though that's sincerely true
I should've been looking out for you
I had a head start on the grieving part
But for you it was out of the blue, so
[Chorus]
Sister, I'm sorry
That I let you down, oh
It was too much weight to carry
So we hit the ground, oh
I know I can't help if you resent mе
Just know that I'm here whenеver you're ready
Cause sister, I'm sorry
Mmm-mm
Mmm-mm
[Verse II]
When I look through old tapes from our camcorder days
We don't hug and it just makes me sad
Were so young and so sweet, except for when we were mean
Somedays I wish that I could go back
But I know I can't think like that
[Pre II]
Cause I've got a hindsight point of view
But that doesn't change how little I knew
So I'd never hit restart cause we're who we are
Because of what we went through, but
[Chorus]
Sister, I'm sorry
That I let you down, oh
(That I let you down)
It was too much weight to carry
So we hit the ground, oh
(So we hit the ground)
I know I can't help if you resent me
Just know that I'm here whenever you're ready
Cause sister, I'm sorry
Mmm-mm
Mmm-mm
(I'm sorry)
