When my dad died The worms ate out both his eyes His soul flew right up in the sky I cried myself to sleep My mother lies Alone on her back at night Adding up hours till her demise She counts herself to sleep When my sister finds My body closed up like the blinds I tell her I promise, it's fine But she cries herself to sleep The men in black ties Arrive at the house in surprise To find a little girl by your side In the wood box where you're sleeping I still see you Inside of this god-awful house You move awfully quiet now And I still feel you everywhere You told me This has always been worth livin' But what's really worth Living anymore?
