cathead Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 The song --> Lyrics below: Death is realSomeone's there and then they're notAnd it's not for singing aboutIt's not for making into artWhen real death enters the house, all poetry is dumbWhen I walk into the room where you wereAnd look into the emptiness insteadAll fails My knees failMy brain failsWords fail Crusted with tears, catatonic and rawI go downstairs and outside and you still get mailA week after you died a package with your name on it cameAnd inside was a gift for our daughter you had ordered in secretAnd collapsed there on the front steps I wailedA backpack for when she goes to school a couple years from nowYou were thinking ahead to a future you must have known Deep down would not include youThough you clawed at the cliff you were sliding downBeing swallowed into a silence that's bottomless and real It's dumbAnd I don't want to learn anything from thisI love you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
