I'm Serious, I'm Sorry
I didn't know that he got in a car crashWe could have been friends, could have got marriedCould have had grandkids, sent them to collegeOr at least attended each other's weddings.I didn't know that you stayed home for hoursCalling his parents asking for answersSkipping your prom night, crying and prayingUp to a God that you never believed in.Meghan held your bodyWhile you were sobbing at the partyAnd I couldn't leave the kitchenI ingested too much poison.I wanted to tell you I know how it feels whenThe people you love just start disappearingAshamed that you took their presence for grantedBut I didn't want to seem condescendingI didn't know that you'd relive the momentThe doctor came out with a frown and a clipboardAnd you wandered home with no ride feeling stupidThat you thought that this was a regular visitMeghan held your bodySongtexteWhile you were sobbing at the partyAnd I couldn't help from staringAnd creating extra tensionWatching Meghan hold your bodyWhile you were sobbing at the partyAnd I couldn't leave the kitchenI ingested too much poison.Were you supposed to not go to college?Stay in your mom's house on the computergoogling grief cures, talking to no oneWaiting for life to start feeling better?Waiting for pain to not be a constant?Waiting to feel like anyone's honest?Waiting for me to stop being sarcasticBecause I can't accept (because I can't accept)Because I can't accept all the bad things that happen.Oh, I swear I'm sorryThat I saw you at the partyThat I stood there saying nothingWhile you wept before your new friendsOh, I'm serious, I'm sorryOh, I'm serious, I'm sorry Aus Songtexte Mania
