Tiny hands, recycled cans, the metal bands I could not stand..
|
The time you cried and threw your crayons across the floor...
|
|
These are the things I think about when I'm alone without you
|
I wonder of your whereabouts and hope like hell you're happy where you are.
|
|
You used to say that you're just fine,
|
But I still wonder all the time.
|
|
Hockey games, medical claims, police reports, terrible grades,
|
J, I'm so proud of all the things that you have done.
|
|
These are the things I think about when I'm alone without you
|
I wonder of your whereabouts and hope like hell you're happy where you are.
|
|
I'm alright, I'm alright.
|
I can see through everything you say, and all the lessons I never learned..
|
|
You used to say that you're just fine,
|
But I still wonder all the time.
|
|
Do you still believe in the stories told
|
To you by my friends and I when you were four years old?
|
How it got so cold that words just froze
|
We had to wait 'til summer to find out what was said
|
One of the best times that we had.
|
|
I know I say that I'm just fine,
|
But I hope you wonder from time to time.
|
|
I was nervous from the start that our muscles might tear us apart
|
(Are muscles tearing us apart?)
|
From the words that carve our lives to the words that take us by surprise
|
(I was never taken by surprise.)
|
From the sounds that disappear to the changes we begin to fear
|
(I can hear you clearly.)
|
One day I'll fail to breathe and all you'll have are memories
|
(All we are are memories.)
|
