She told me I would miss her when she’s gone
Whimpering, remembering. I understand that now,
she’s gone.
It’s like I’m buffering and lagging on her memory
Losing someone who raised you, makes you want to run
Run until you run out of your mind
Run until the picture of her face fades and you become blind.
Cry baby, cry baby
She hears you maybe
Rock me grandma rock me front and back till the chill leaves.
The sound of her voice and the taste of her smoke
The thought of death, it all makes me choke.
I am a broken record, I’m playing her words on repeat
I want to run away from the grief until I can’t feel my feet.
I love you more than my life baby
Her life is over now.
I love you more than my heart
My heart is broken now.
