Jon & Mary

Jon he wondered from the straight and narrow
Drinking bottled violence with a heart full of care
He aimed the gun straight at the heart of nothing
No one survived and no one saw who was there

Mary Linda took apart the sorrow
Put it together in a single box
Taking bites from love and loving sorrow
There's never time to just sit back and watch

With our backs against a wall of loving
And our faces all to close to care
A hundredth flower lain across her chest
A final resting place for final rest
And the boys cried just as hard as rain
Overwhelmed by this heart-crafted brand of pain
Kicking sand into the eyes of all
And terrified they'd do the same big fall
