Four months in and five months due
I could already see you
And we had heard your heartbeat several times
Faster than a bullet train
Working on a list of names
Pencil line divide in pink and blue
When your mama called me crying with the news
Now I'm flying down a two-lane road
Faster than the limit goes
Trying hard to see through tears like glass
Blurry lines and balled up fists
Desperate cry, "Lord, not like this"
I hope to God it ain't, but I know it's true
It's a good life 'til it's not and then it's cruel
Oh, I didn't sleep for weeks
Darkness cut me at the knees
Blue as water, frozen over
They say time's supposed to fix it, but they're wrong
When a life's so short, the dying's never done
When a life's so short, the dying's never done
People try and they mean well
But they still put us through hell
Every time they ask when you are due
It's so awful, it's so sad
Be thankful for the time you had
It happens all the time, you'll be alright
I'm still not and, Lord, it keeps me up at night
Oh, I didn't sleep for weeks
Darkness cut me at the knees
Blue as water, frozen over
They say time's supposed to fix it, but they're wrong
When a life's so short, the dying's never done
Six years later, I still cry
It's still raw and I still die a little
Every time I ride on through
What would you do? What would you say
If you saw me acting this way?
Would you tell me to cheer up and move on too?
It's so hard to smile when I think of you
But I didn't sleep for weeks
Darkness cut me at the knees
Blue as water, frozen over
They say time's supposed to fix it, but they're wrong
When a life's so short, the dying's never done
When a life's so short, the dying's never done
Never done
