Grow Up And Blow Away

Flooding the room

To my tune from the womb

To the holiday

There is no holiday



First double-cross her heart

He wants to start a family

Needing something to go on



If she weren't writing in blood

She'd bring him her jokes

A new liver

And a shovel for the mud

If he were not knee-deep in mud

He'd bring her his jokes

He'd get her a typewriter



If this is the life, why does it feel

So good to die today?

Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away



If this is the life, why does it feel

So good to die today?

Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away



Nobody knows which street to take

He took the easy way

What was the easy way?



First double-cross her heart

He wants to start a family

She always thought she would not



If she weren't writing in blood

She'd bring him her jokes

A new liver

And a shovel for the mud

If he were not knee deep in mud

He'd bring her his jokes

He'd get her a typewriter



If this is the life, why does it feel

So good to die today?

Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away



If this is the life, why does it feel

So good to die today?

Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away



First double-cross her heart

He wants to start a family

Her body is the baby



If this is the life, why does it feel

So good to die today?

Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away



If this is the life, why does it feel

So good to die today?

Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away

(Her body is the baby)



Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away

(Needs something to go on)



Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away

(Her body is the baby)



Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away

(Always thought she would not)



Blue to grey

Grow up and blow away

(Her body is the baby)
