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