I am numbing myself completely.
Can you hear me right now?
I watched your mother bury you today,
It wasn't her words that shook me,
it was the resemblance you shared.
Don't it seem so far away?
Like the past never happened,
or like nothings ever changed.
With your casket open in front of me,
Your eyes closed and your lips silent.
I am numbing myself completely.
Can you hear me right now?
I watched your mother bury you today,
It wasn't her words that shook me,
it was the resemblance you shared.
I didn't listen to the preacher.
I couldn't look your husband in the eyes.
I'm not sure what I meant to you then,
So I'm not sure what I owe you now.
But if something I said hurt you
I swear it was not my intention.
associate with vulnerability
I am numbing myself completely.
Can you hear me right now?
I watched your mother bury you today,
It wasn't her words that shook me,
it was the resemblance you shared.
