lyrics

Southwest, a car comes to rest
Outside a little red home
White trim around the windows
Flowers watch the walkway
A real lovers dream line

Inside the boy runs to his room
The man walks there too
Remembering his youth
The room in his mind
As if he never left in time

But it all changed, like everything
Now a small space serving more purpose
A rec room and an office
An empty version of its self
He finds a for sale sign

To the kitchen, the boy and himself
Sees her bills, his mothers worries,
Old papers, same crimes, different times
After her husband left this world
Told everyone she’d be fine

Told everyone she’d be fine
Told everyone she’d be fine
Told everyone she’d be just fine

My senses misleading
Can I really be here alone?
Surrounded by you all
A room full of ghosts

Now you’ve left and gone home
I will hold your glory close

I only hope I can let go
Say goodbye to all the ghosts I know
I’m searching for rest
I’m dealing with death
I’m trying my best
At hiding from everything

Top shelf
I kept you in a cardboard box
When your world
Was reduced to ash

I never should’ve asked what happens
When people go and disappear
Their bodies are fed to the earth
In the last they will ever wear

Slightly more adorned when you left
Than when you entered
Easy to say you were loved
Easier to say you will be missed

Your work got left behind
But I swore I’d finish it
Or it would finish me if I let it
So let it glow

This little light of mine
To love everyone, my son
You gave to me
Just in time, ill let it shine

Dad and I, and my brother too
We feel you in these empty rooms
I’m sure its you, I’m sure its you

Although we painted, your pictures still remain
Left hanging in their frames
It’s been a few years and the lingering pain
Has gotten better
Ill remember you, fondly, like good weather.
