Sleep In the Heat

I was feeling a little bizarre

The day that I buried my family car

In the scrap metal wrecking yard

And I've said so many goodbyes

In the 25 years that I've been alive

And I, don't know why this one was so hard

And every time when I go back to my apartment

All I wanna do is get stoned

And I'm sick and tired of blacking out on my carpet

And waking up all on my own

So I brought you home

You started falling apart

6 moths after you moved in

And I should of known from the start

That things would be different

It's not something that I can fix

If I could do anything you know I would

If this fucking vacation would come to an end

Maybe then you'd be normal again

Last week when I went back to my apartment

You were looking so stoned

The day after Christmas you acted so different

You just wanted to be on your own

So I brought you medicine, went to the vet and

Cashed all of my savings and loans

But it was too late, you were letting go

And nothing I say, will make it ok

You just sleep in the heat and repeat

You're wasting away, and nothing I do is gonna save you

I'm trying my best but you can't even

Look at me, or talk to me, or tell me what's happening to you

Yesterday I went back to my apartment

To see how you've been holding up

You hadn't been eating, I thought you were sleeping, but

You're not waking up

I want you to know that I'd spend every bit of my

Pitiful savings and loans, just to see you again

But I still have hope
