Early Sunsets Over Monroeville

 

Late dawns and early sunsets 
Just like my favorite scenes 
Then holding hands 
And life was perfect 
Just like up on the screen 
And the whole time while always giving 
Counting your face among the living 
Up and down escalators 
Pennies and colder fountains 
Elevators and half price sales 
Trapped in by all these mountains 
Running away and hiding with you 
I never thought they'd get me here 
Not knowing you'd change from just one bite 
I fought them all off just to hold you close and tight

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head
But would anything matter if you're already dead?
And should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger
Your eyes vacant and stained

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head
And would anything matter if you're already dead?
And now should I be shocked by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger
Your eyes vacant and stained
And in saying you loved me
Made things harder at best
And these words changing nothing 
As your body remains
And there's no room in this hell
There's no room in the next
And our memories defeat us
And I'll end this direst

But does anyone notice?
But does anyone care?
And if I had the guts to put this to your head
But does anything matter if you're already dead?
And should I be shocked now by the last thing you said?
Before I pull this trigger
Your eyes vacant and stained
And in saying you loved me
Made things harder at best
And these words changing nothing
As your body remains
And there's no room in this hell
There's no room in the next
But does anyone notice there's a corpse in this bed?
