Sallie Ford and the Sound Outside
Thirteen Years Old
Im only 13 years old / Already lifes coldCant talk to mama / And today my daddy diedTell me why I couldnt cryThey always say that life will go onBut all I got is my house and my lawnMy dog, my brother, my school and my friendsAnd now that hes gone does it mean it all endsTell me why I couldnt cry / I hadnt even begun to swearAll I remember is his stareAnd now that hes gone I can feel him even moreIm just waitin for these tears to pourTell me why I couldnt cry / Will my brother understandWhat it is to be a manWill my mother stop her tears / Or will this go on for years And years / Tell me why I couldnt cry
