Another one just walked by.
They always look
I can see their faces turn as I come into view.

Sky blue eyes and thick blonde hair
Tanned skin and a porcelain smile.
They are all the same.

Roll out of bed and go to class
Hair a mess last night’s clothes
I can

You gave your life in such a inspiring kind of way

We celebrate your resurrection not considering the amount you had to pay.

With Eggs and bunnies and hide and seek

I'm tired of explaining.
The same tired words from the same tired mouth.
"There is no work."
I don't wanna answer the phone.

I thought I heard a car in the drive
paranoia like a cold chill.
I can't get warm.
I don't wanna answer the door.

The lights will

To guide you through

To hold and protect you

I'll be there for you

I'll be there for you

In everyway I can

I'll be there

i could laugh i could cry
but i never thought you would die.
i could imagine you still being around
never thought my knees would hit the ground.
one day you were here
when i was semi-sincere.
next day you were gone

HE WAS DRESSED IN BIB JEANS

WITH BOOTS UP TO HIS KNEES

THE MAN SAID TO HIS WIFE

I KNOW ITS HARD

BUT I LIKE BEING A FARMER IN LIFE

I FERTILIZE AND PLANT MY SEED

BUT WITHOUT THE RIGHT CONDITIONS

I MAY END UP WITH WEEDS

THE NEED FOR MY CROP MAY COME AND GO

YOU WERE THE WORLD TO ME

YOU FILLED THE EMPTY PART OF MY LIFE YOU SEE

WE HAD SO MANY PLANS

TALKS OF WEDDING BANDS

THIS IS WHY I ASK NOW

YOU WANT TO LEAVE ME SOMEHOW

HOW CAN I GO ON

KNOWING OUR LOVE IS GONE

I GUESS YOU ARE OUT OF MY LIFE

if you look into my heart maybe you could see

all the misery beginning to start

if you could remember way back when

maybe happiness we could have then

if i wasn't there all other things in your life didn't seem to matter if  i didn't care

most of the times you are at home me and the kids

Where I learned to ride my bike
Draw with chalk and jump rope
Where I climbed trees just to see the view of town

Building forts and pretending to live in them
Going to the mystically blue colored pond
catching tadpoles fish and laughing the whole time

Where basketball began in the

Why the blank stare
Why the tear
Why the sobbing
You knew all along
No surprise to your family
No surprise to your friends
This day you were dreading
The day of no love only disapointment

I can appologize
I can beg and cry
I can deny every single drop
I can turn and

God this is all there is...

He stood on the corner of the wall and saw
all that lay before him
and said
WORTHLESS
This is WORTHLESS

THIS IS ALL THERE IS
GOD
THIS IS ALL THERE IS...

For a moment—just a
