I've asked myself a million times
Gm
why didn't just take my sisters that night
F
and all of the hate we leave behind
A#
and all those bottled tears you leave
F
remove the velvet from between her vertebrae
Gm
and all the holes lead deep inside us
F
sincerely smoldering in her misery
A#
slipping from her stomach then she cried
F Gm
F A#
F
all that we hold holding and then this
Gm
will slip away or slowly die
F
melt between us all over the pavement
A#
all shivering and sweating and breathing
F
though it makes it as the always happen (?)
Gm
hovering the trees with lights
F
and all the arms that have swung around me
A#
like a robins nest with eggs inside
F
now we go off in search of kindness
Gm
through a life willing and beautiful
F
we know we can't take others with us
A# F
though a comment on how it feels just like a brother
