|
When my dad died |
|
The worms ate out both his eyes |
|
His soul flew right up in the sky |
|
I cried myself to sleep |
|
My mother lies |
|
Alone on her back at night |
|
Adding up hours till her demise |
|
She counts herself to sleep |
|
When my sister finds |
|
My body closed up like the blinds |
|
I tell her |
|
I promise, it's fine |
|
But she cries herself to sleep |
|
The men in black ties |
|
Arrive at the house in surprise |
|
To find a little girl by your side |
|
In the wood box where you're sleeping |
|
I still see you |
|
Inside of this god-awful house |
|
You move awfully quiet now |
|
And I still feel you everywhere |
|
You told me |
|
This has always been worth livin' |
|
But what's really worth |
|
Living anymore? |
