Too Soon

Buried your ghost in the attic

Didn't seem to like it

I did what I had to do

And I'm doing better than expected

I don't expect you're asking

Doesn't sound like you

But I don't blame you

For what you did

Just trying to hold

Your secrets in, you said

You're looking to

Do what's best

For you

I'm looking out from my bed

Watching the snow fall on the shed

If I don't ever see you again

It would be too soon

Christmas shopping

Buying boxes

To pack your things in

This year can't end

Soon enough

Happy hanukkah and so on

Dodging phone calls

From your mom

And you

Don't miss me

All that much

Everyone knows what you said

I guess that I still have some friends

You're looking to do what's best for you

I'm looking out from my bed

Watching snow fall on the shed

If I don't ever see you again

It would be too soon

Buried my body in the garden

I bet you found it shocking

The day I sprouted up

You keep digging

Up the dead

You're running

Out of acreage

And hiding spots

I'm looking out from my bed

Watching the snow fall

And fall and fall again

While you tell me

It's in my head

There's no one I'm fighting with

Then you push the knife back in

I don't want to be your friend

I don't want to be your friend

Maybe it's too soon
