I thought you would live forever
never seemed better, you always stayed young
had your fun
I never figured you would kick the bucket,
you really stuck it, right where it always hurts
plunged into the dirt
I thought I would do this for a long long time
but it seems that even you must die
and I'm not at your funeral
I'm already moving on, writing different songs
but that doesn't mean I don't care!
but that doesn't mean I don't care!
I care too much!
I care too little!
I care that I'm not there to see
your body, brittle
from a long, long, long, long, beautiful life
and if that's where it all ends
then whats the point?
we live our life in a chain of disjoints
thinking, feeling, hoping, believing
that it just might work out!
I use to think it was beautiful
but now I'm not so sure
and when I hear your loving whispers
I care when you skip the words
that I wrote down for you to say
I worked on this script night and day
but no reads their lines!
see it, feel it, hear it in the air
there's something moving back and forth
but i don't know what where
i need to find it, destroy it, can no longer ignore it
i figure it would work for me but now i wanna kill it
with my bare hands, rip it all apart, send it back to the start
and I swear all of this is straight from the heart
because I hate it, I hate it, I hate it, I hate it
I hate it all so much!
I wish I could do everything over
but I wont get that chance
so I'll stick with what I got.
