His idea was you can fix everything, I changed it a bit :)

[Refrain]

She said, I can fix everythin, But you cain't fix me


[Verse 1]

My memories only go back to the age of seven, I think,

not sure. before that, it's a blur. I think my momma

might have set me in front of the tv for the moon landin,

Not sure if that is real, or I made it up. Since my 

family is long gone, nobody really around to confirm. 

I'm tired, where was I? Oh yes, when it started, not

sure. My memories are fragmented, Although I do vaguely

remember my sister gettin hit with a swing in the face,

killed her tooth, that was '68, 'til she died,

she never got it fixed. I know there is stuff before, 

I just don't want to go there. Then my therapist said


[Refrain][Echo Effect]

She said, I can fix everythin, But you cain't fix me

Oh no, You cain't fix me, nope


[Verse 2]

She, asked me what he was like, My father, he was a demon. By age of 

nine, I developed my pattern matching skill, I could not only 

pick out his truck from the others, I could tell by his mood

by how he parked in the driveway, the way he opened the front 

door, whether he went to the bedroom first or kitchen. I always

had my window open, bike by the house, gate unlatched to

bolt if I needed to. My childhood was chaos, eggshells, cheap 

beer and cigarettes. I have static in my head, so much static,

Noise. I need to stop. make it stop. Your not broken she says.


[Refrain]

She said, I can fix everythin, But you cain't fix me


[Verse 3]

Again she asked when it first happened, when did what happen? Oh that, dunno.

I told her about the box in my mind that's locked. never to be opened.

That's in that box. Don't wanna go there, it's dark. Can't deal. 

I know when it ended, I was seventeen, he was in my face about somethin, 

Had me pinned, again, this time, I was able to catch him off guard, 

as he spun around, he was off balance, I slammed into him, his foot 

caught a chair and went down in a lump, taking a few chairs with him.

I stood over him, didn't say a word, just stared. then walked away. 

This is still workable, she says,


[Refrain][Echo Effect]

She said, I can fix everything, But you cain't fix me


[Verse 4]

What's in the box can't be that bad is a theory you don't want to 

test, She convinced me that it was best, I closed my eyes,

and recounted everythin that happened up until the age of seven, 

Didn't hold back. She stopped writin, because the pen dropped to the

floor, she didn't bother to pick it up. She reached for the tissue, 

but it wasn't for me. I felt anger, so much anger, every word spewed out

like a gushin volcano, I couldn't stop, it just flowed. I was tired, numb and

my brain stopped processin. At that moment, I existed out of time.

She asked, if I was ok, fuck, define ok. not really, but what can you do.. here we are.

Last thing I remember when I left her office that day, she gave me a hug


[Outro]

And said, sorry, I can fix everythin, But I can't fix you

No, oh no, I can't fix you.
