Old Familiar Written by Wendy Parr

Welcome back I hear the screen door
Doesn’t seem so long now your back for more
Old familiar I seen you before
So familiar hard to ignore
Imagine you’ve come to even the score

Don’t now how much I’ve learned since you packed
If do the math I may have to subtract
Don’t know how much has changed in fact
Things are just as you left them all intact

I’ve tried to fight you
Beg you to leave
Don’t you believe
When I tell you these things
I’ve asked for answers
But the question’s still king
You keep returning
Leave me empty

Old familiar I’m under your spell
You’ve broken my heart like a silent bell
Ringing loud in my ear
Ringing I don’t want to hear
The silence you bring year after year
You ain’t no friend just a familiar tear


Welcome back I hear the screen door
Doesn’t seem so long and your back for more
Old Familiar I seen you before
So familiar hard to ignore
Can’t you tell I don’t want you anymore

Old familiar
Don’t settle in
I know you well but you’re not my friend
