Tim Gamache - Ode to the Bathroom Floor

Cold, familiar tile
I haven’t seen you in a while
I didn’t think that I’d be back here
Leaning on this door
Singing an ode to the bathroom floor
An ode to the bathroom floor
And I keep up my halloween decorations
Maybe to scare the snow to stay up in the sky
Cos every winter brings the same revelation
That I’m the one who lets her die
She tried to tell me
When the smoke made me seize
And when nobody helped me
I was begging her please
To look the other way
As I lay
On the cold, familiar tile
And I couldn’t feel her smile
Through the ringing in my ears
I could hear a voice for sure
Singing an ode to the bathroom floor
An ode to the bathroom floor
Just like that sunny day with friends on the cape
When spring was blossoming the trees so we could hide
And I supplied them all with my favorite escape
And somehow snow fell from the sky
She rained upon me
Like a firing squad
She said, 'Look in the mirror
Is that my son or a fraud
What happened to my boy
What happened to his joy
What made you take that poison'
And finally I let her in
She opened her arms
She said, 'We all make mistakes
But I raised you so strong
I know you have what it takes
To turn your life around
When each cold winter brings you down
And you think I’m ashes underground
I’m still here
Let the cold, familiar tile
Remind you you’re my child
December froze my lips
But my voice is always yours
In this ode to the bathroom floor
This ode to the bathroom floor'
