Why Would I Want To Die Lyrics

you didn't really die

you only went away

my drummer he saw you

buying supplies about a week ago

a couple towns away

south on the
interstate



i gave him shit for not

telling me sooner than he
did

he said he thought i knew

he said everybody else had seen her
too

i haven't been around that much

or kept in touch

with
anyone or anything



you didn't really die

although it seems
as if you did

why would you have to hide

and who stayed on with you
while you hid?

from all those silent nights

that silence sure can be
real loud

louder than anything



you didn't really die

so
what am i to do with

the memories of ours i chronicled and buried in the
backyard?

dig them up today

attach a note that says they're
yours

leave them at the door of the supply store

and hope that when
you come along

you bring yourself to reading them

and wonder from
precisely that they're moving on



why would i want to die?

why would i want to die

why would i want to die?

why would i want
to die
