Weather Forecast - Threatening Storms
Talking about the weather with you, alone
is better than you not saying a word to me
you talk to the butcher, the gas station clerk
but not a word to me- what is wrong?
your lips remain sealed no matter my pleading
I know I got angry, threw you against the wall
but you came home late without letting me know
dinner wasn’t ready when I arrived at six
You know I like it on the table when I walk in the door
And I don’t like cauliflower as you damned well know
You wouldn’t have served it if you cared about me
And now you’re not talking to me at all
Your eyes stare glassy, you’re holding your breath
It’s all your fault, you made me do it, you bitch
I’m getting angry again but your body remains still
If it mattered to you, you’d talk to me once more
now I sit, alone, talking about weather with no one.
