GRIEF

I’ll sing my face off till my mouth starts to bleed

I’ll run away until I’m weak in the knees

Might miss the sign sent from heaven above

But grief is the price that we all pay for love

I need to scrub away and rinse off my souls but

Running in circles never seems to get old

Since childhood I have always been told

Don’t run with scissors boy you’ll reap what you sow

From a promise that’s been undone

To a mother who grieves for her son

Yeah the price for a moment of love

It Can slice you like a knife

Shape you into a no one

Life’s an interesting allegory

But it seems a bit predatory

You can scream till your lungs bleed but never be heard

I’ll sing my face off till my mouth starts to bleed

I’ll run away until I’m weak in the knees

Might miss the sign sent from heaven above

But grief is the price that I know I’ll pay for love

I need to scrub away and rinse off my souls but

Running in circles never seems to get old

Since childhood I have always been told

Don’t run with scissors boy you’ll reap what you sow

You can try to escape but rest assured

The price will be paid

The sentence must be served

You can try to escape but rest assured

You’ll crawl away like a worm from a bird
