lyrics

It didn't rain like every movie shows. my feet sank in ground, my hands gripping tight the casket where you lie.

No one said it was gunna be ok. They couldn't even look way as they walked right by with eyes tied to the floor.

Your brother sat in the back just by himself, he lit up a cigarette, and the flame burned down and seard the suling flesh.

Your mother passed out and fell down near the stone. No one could make her wake, but her heart still beats in pieces in her chest.

Every time I try to see things through your eyes, I get lost.
All the things I tried to hold up to the light go dark.
Maybe now I find all I tried to hide in this love.

I didn't care what the preacher had to say, it just fed into my rage. We all know its made up bullshit anyway.

I walked back alone, in the searing summer breeze. Was there a deal you made, like Faust? My eyes welled up just knowing what we'd lost.

the cars drove away, in a single sullen line. Was there comfort that they find in the painfully repressed chambers of their minds?

Your father stays, as the bright white daylight fades, just staring at your name, as he just breaks down and falls onto the ground.

Oh, my love. little pieces from the start, little pieces fall apart.
Maybe now I find all I tried to hide in this love.
