Lyrics
Nana, last Sunday at the Piggly Wiggly on MLK,
I saw a woman with your hands bagging up her collard greens.
Air got thick, smelled of pluff mud after the rain,
and I swear for a second I forgot you were a memory,
I almost called your name.
[Chorus]
(Sung by second vocalist)
Don't you send another sign,
Send the words you never said.
This silence is a garment
Worn too thin around my head.
[Verse 2]
Daddy said, "You got her stubborn streak," last Tuesday, then he looked away.
Same way you did when the sewing machine would jam.
He thinks this quiet is a pattern that he's supposed to save,
a family quilt of what we don't say, of what I am.

[Chorus]
(Sung by second vocalist)
Don't you send another sign,
Send the words you never said.
This silence is a garment
Worn too thin around my head.
[Bridge]
(Sung by second vocalist)
Did you ever wanna scream?
Just pull the stitches out and run?
This grief's a borrowed needle,
I'm done.
[Outro]
(Spoken)
Yeah, I'm done.
Standing in the checkout line, just trying to breathe again.
