Woods

Your sister started pulling her hair out
But when she pulled up next to me
I pretended the sun was in my eyes
Instead of pretending she wasn’t looking
It’s a quick game, a canker sore in the way
I’m thinking about you every day
When I was young
Death chewed me up And I was swallowed by By a world that I don’t feel a part of By a world that I don’t feel a part of anymore
That old man stood in front of your body
And said the morgue would have called you dead
I watched your parents write him a check
And their lips went null when they kissed your forehead
And they kept your room exactly the same
I’m still thinking about you every day
When I was young
Death chewed me up And I was swallowed by By a world that I don’t feel a part of By a world that I don’t feel a part of anymore
Smashed that girl’s pumpkins in her driveway
When I read the note she left on your grave
It’s been fifteen years
You’re the reason I’m not close to anybody
I really think you were then somebody
When I was young
Death chewed me up And I was swallowed by By a world that I don’t feel a part of anymore
When I was young
Death chewed me up And I was swallowed by By a world that I don’t feel a part of By a world that I don’t feel a part of anymore
