Got the call, knew something was wrong
Didn't want to assume the worst
But I could tell from the tone of your voice
That the worst had happened
No need to lie to me
The words, I'm sorry for your loss
Like an ice pick, stabbing my eardrums
Well meaning people
Never quite know what to say

When you died I had to keep on living
No time to mourn when the bills keep on stacking
Big salty tears will have to wait to fall
On another day when it's okay to wreck and fall apart
When you died the world kept on turning
No time to cry when you've got to keep on earning
The world don't care what you're dealing with
Gotta live again and push ahead and fight another day

The second time was harder than the first
Felt alone floating through the universe
Unmoored, no connection to the past
Just a dusty old tin of old faded photographs
The pain swallowed down with the daily dose
Of guilt for emotions that I can't control
I can't help it, that my life got easier
Money from a death wasted trying to numb the pain

When you died I had to keep on living
No time to mourn when the bills keep on stacking
Big salty tears will have to wait to fall
On another day when it's okay to wreck and fall apart
When you died the world kept on turning
No time to cry when you've got to keep on earning
The world don't care what you're dealing with
Gotta live again and push ahead and fight another day

Time don't heal, you just hurt a little less
Embrace the numb that is creeping in your chest
Dead don't feel, they feel nothing at all
It's okay to be numb or fall apart
Time don't heal, you just hurt a little less
Embrace the numb that is creeping in your chest
Dead don't feel, they feel nothing at all
It's okay to be numb or fall apart
