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