I'm half way sane today

Or was it yesterday

Or is that you that I'm thinking of

I only broke down four or five...

Or as many years as I've been alive

And you're not

I caught myself thinking about you

It could be I was looking at you

And your face wasn't quite the same

Without your glasses I wouldn't recognize you

Could be the damage from the bullet

Or the coroner's knife

And I packed your things you know

Stuck my finger in the pool

That you left on your bedroom floor

And from the rag my father used to clean up your blood

I cut a square

A little piece of you alive for me

But little piece of mind for the family

But don't worry

I know that we'll do fine

And I know why you had to leave

Just tell me there's a light

Because life is killing me

And I am only so strong
