lyrics

Ain't you a funny baby
you favor the street when it's shady
and if I tried to guide you and save thee
wouldn't you cast me off and blame me
you're a tropical storm of trouble
and every time the bail gets doubled
Oh how I try my best to get you,
we keep on going and we get through
I've walked every darkened path with you
no I won't forsake or forget you.

And still you act like this world's a laughing matter
The hearts you broke are piled up and scattered
Can you save yourself with all the love you've gathered
I know you must see the hazard
No that heart of yours ain't made of stone
and the suffering you make is all your own
and everything you've learned and ever known
won't keep you from dying alone...

Everyone pictures an afterlife
whether it be angels strumming harps
or a pattern of rebirth over and over and over
whether you rot with your matter
or however you spend the hereafter
no one pictures dying
but I picture dying
alone.
