lyrics

Your bed lays unmade and your mom pulls the shades open to let in some sun
As she leaves the room, her eyes swell like balloons and she asks herself where she went wrong
But it's not her fault, you were doomed from the start and there's nothing that she could've done
Your stepfather dreams of your eyes and his screams when he found you on the bathroom floor
They buried their son fifty years too young, but they still hear him locking his door

Your brother has all his old books you once stole, still dog-eared from where you left off
He has all the lines from a page memorized in that copy of "Waiting for Godot"
With your favorite part, the one you had marked about habit and what it can do
If you had survived, maybe he wouldn't cry when he listened to "Louder than Bombs"
But when he hears "Asleep" he feels nothing but cheated 'cause he never heard all your songs

Your lover still sleeps in your sweatshirt it keeps her from waking up cold every night
It's all she could keep, the one covered in bleach that once almost started a fight
She hated it so and the way you would joke and wear it simply out of spite
She loved you in red and still she loves you in death, but she hates hearing "Your Hand in Mine"
She remembers your laugh and how you looked like your dad, and that sweatshirt now suits you just fine
