Fourth of July

The evil, it spread like a fever ahead

It was night when you died, my firefly

What could I have said to raise you from the dead?

Oh, could I be the sky on the Fourth of July?

Well, you do enough talk, my little hawk, why do you cry?

Tell me, what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?

Or the Fourth of July?

We're all gonna die

Sittin' at the bed with the halo at your head

Was it all a disguise? Like junior high

Where everything was fiction, future and prediction

Now, where am I? My fading supply

Did you get enough love, my little dove?

Why do you cry?

And I'm sorry I left, but it was for the best, though it never felt right

My little Versailles

The hospital asked should the body be cast

Before I say goodbye? My star in the sky

Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth

Do you find it alright, my dragonfly?

Shall we look at the moon, my little loon?

Why do you cry?

Make the most of your life, while it is rife

While it is light

Well, you do enough talk, my little hawk

Why do you cry?

Tell me, what did you learn from the Tillamook burn?

Or the Fourth of July?

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die

We're all gonna die
