To the Death |
I need a spell to stop my friends from |
feeling guilty every time they talk about you |
How every subject led to the last words that they might have said |
It’s like I’ve lost a part of them too |
So I talk to you |
I need a drink |
I need the distance that the daylight |
brings to drift into the sleep I lose each night |
Your boys parade their sorrows |
Say there’s nothing that they could have done |
And I hate myself for thinking they’re right |
So no more songs about suicide |
Break the swagger in your stride |
Here’s to the death |
To the holes in whatever’s left |
If we’re supposed to make the most of every moment |
How come all the memories I keep are shrapnel sharp, embedded deep? |
If you could see the mess you’d leave, would you? |
So here’s to the hope |
How each and every rope thrown out |
forms bridges we can build without you |
How we talk in abstract terms about |
our grief and how it strengthens us |
And secretly hope that it’s true |
Still opens wounds on your birthday |
Like one dumb legacy |
Here’s to the death |
To the holes in whatever’s left |
If we’re supposed to make the most of every moment |
How come all the memories I keep are shrapnel sharp, embedded deep? |
If you could see the mess you’d leave, would you still? |
Yeh would you still? |
And oh-my-god! |
How come all the memories I keep are shrapnel sharp, embedded deep? |
If you could see this mess you’d leave, would you still? |
