I went to meet you the sun blaring in my eyes I should've known it'd be the day that I died So I handed the money and accepted the deed My heart and thoughts spent, laid out in full bleed And with agreeances behind you cut the final thread Left me for what I was, what I am, for dead Remind me again, the opposite of saved I wanted something that I couldn't name You killed me with your killing knife I knew I was no good And all the while your words ringing my ears If there's a thought that's eating at your head You've got to do what you need to get done And kill that thing dead No second guesses, no last chances, no negative thoughts At least that's what my father said And he said it a god damn lot So I hatched a plan, fool proof and well fed Took an axe to the walls, gasoline to the beds And I stepped into the night with the wind at my back And my own true self echoing around my head See I'll start the stove and open the gas Left a note for my son beneath the willow out back Remind me again, the opposite of saved I wanted something that I could not name You killed me with your killing knife I knew I was no good And all the while your words ringing my ears If there's a thought that's eating at your head You've got to do what you need to get done And kill that thing dead No second guesses, no last chances, no negative thoughts At least that's what my father said And he said it a god damn lot First came the dogs, sniffing and biting Cruisers in the driveway, alarms flashing like lightning Sift through the ash just the cast iron smoldering And a text beneath the willow where the hounds had been loitering Said don't be a fool, but don't think yourself too smart This life's not a game, it's a hell of an art And don't ever lose track of the wind at your back Just do what you can Even when you can't
