hear the alarm at 8:00 a.m.
give out a shout to get my spirits up
might take more today
hop into the bathroom I see myself
how pathetic is this sight
[chorus 1]
take my empty shell and burn it
throw the ashes
to help the roses grow
as I watch the sun just sit
feel the warm rays on my face
I wish I could melt away like
ice on the sidewalk
Kirsten said i will be alright
it just takes a little time
I think I'll read a book outside
but the dog keeps barking and I lost my train of thought
[chorus 2]
have I ever told you
that your blue eyes
look so black and vacant
so here is your birthday present
a box that is empty
with a card that says I love you darling
shadow friend I sit on the couch
what lovely vases you have they bring out
the blue curtains and plastic smiles
but if you need me just stop by
I will sacrifice my time cause im your only friend
we can travel far away
watch the world dissolve disappear
is this what the view looks like when your dead?
