I thought that you were joking When you said, you couldn't breathe You said, you couldn't breathe Turns out that you were choking On a town you couldn't leave You knew you'd never leave It met your disapproval At the age of 8 years old You were only 8 years old From then on there was no removal From that one way dead end road That one way dead end road I thought that you were laughing When you cried your eyeballs out You cried your eyeballs out And I don't mean to be prying But what were you so sad about What are you still sad about Met your disappointment At the age of 9 years old You were only 9 years old From then on there would be no ointment To take away these burns, to make that pain grow dull And forever ain't that long When your smile's stuck In your head like a pop song All you think about is death Your dirty head has gone unswept For way too long now For way too long now I thought that you were sleeping When I found you there in bed I found you there in bed When I touched you you were freezing It turned out that you were dead It turned out that you were dead It met your disapproval At the age of 8 years old You were only 8 years old From then on there was no removal From your fucked up head and your broken home Ad forever ain't that long When your smile's stuck In your head like a pop song All you think about is death Your dirty head has gone unswept For way too long now For way too long now For way too long now For way too long now
