Ode to the Evening Tree (a song)
I left it unsaid
with tears running down my cheeks
scabbed elbow bleeding red
into the light blue sheets on my bed
I fell asleep
wondering what you would think
to see the hope I keep
the slippery slope´s getting steep
Chorus:
and I forgot
to tell you that the sun came up
and I forgot
that you took that jump
When I heard
I was wearing a blue shirt
my vision blurred
you were my Byrd
Last July
the sky was sort of gray
you asked me why
all humans die
Chorus
Two months later
You´re still alive
still don´t beleive in the Creator
not even a little bit straighter
I can´t wait
you said it like there´s a future
It´ll be great
just us, with no self-hate
Chorus
The hurt´s still there
I´m sorry it´s my fault
I didn´t mean it, I swear
you know I care
We´ll get through it
hand in hand
I won´t quit-
no sh*t.
Chorus
