Notes On How To Stay Alive
Album: It's Just Great
Text
Gladiolus burn like summer months,
Brighten up at once my lonely little life.
Had to notice bold on every front,
You know what I want so tell your little lies.
Tell me that he's waiting on the porch step,
Say I'll see his face again.
I know that he hasn't come back home yet,
Say why don't we just pretend.
Someone tell me why am I surprised,
When will all these fleeting thoughts of him subside.
Making notes on how to stay alive,
When life comes back into focus.
Oh sweet flower mock me with your red,
Make me feel upset instead of empty
What a power lift me from my bed,
Help me read the notes he sent me.
Tell me that he's standing right beside me,
Want to see his face again.
Tell me how he lived a life like lightning,
Loud and gone within an instant.
Someone tell me why am I surprised,
When will all these fleeting thoughts of him subside.
Making notes on how to stay alive,
When life comes back into focus.
I know he's gone away,
And that won't change it's set in stone.
I'm bleeding everyday,
A little less still on my own.
I remember walking in the road,
Promising our final breaths.
That December I was all alone,
Ash is all that I have left.
Someone tell me why am I surprised,
When will all these fleeting thoughts of him subside.
Making notes on how to stay alive,
When my life comes back.
Someone tell me why am I surprised,
When will all these fleeting thoughts of him subside.
Making notes on how to stay alive,
When life comes back into focus.
Gladiolus.
