For Safe Keeping
You picked up a few shifts
To help make ends meet
It's hard to work when
You're dealing with grief
And then you told me you needed
A place to stay
It's just for a while
I'll be out in the morning or just a few days
And I stashed a few pills
Just for safe keeping
I don't know if we will ever stop drinking
And then you turned to me and said
That you wanted to die I said
We all feel that way sometimes
And then you screamed at me
How could they be gone
I said I don't know where cruelty comes from
Maybe it's in all of us
Yeah maybe it's in everyone
You moved to a new place
I needed some time to think
It's hard to keep in touch when
You're dealing with grief
And then you told me you needed
To find someone else
I don't wanna be lonely
Yeah maybe it's easy to forgive myself
So I kept a few things
Just for safe keeping
I don't know if I will ever stop drinking
And then you turned to me and said
That you don't wanna die I wish
We all felt that way sometimes
And then I screamed at you
How could you be gone
You said I don't know where cruelty comes from
Maybe it's in all of us
Yeah maybe it's in everyone
To help make ends meet
It's hard to work when
You're dealing with grief
And then you told me you needed
A place to stay
It's just for a while
I'll be out in the morning or just a few days
And I stashed a few pills
Just for safe keeping
I don't know if we will ever stop drinking
And then you turned to me and said
That you wanted to die I said
We all feel that way sometimes
And then you screamed at me
How could they be gone
I said I don't know where cruelty comes from
Maybe it's in all of us
Yeah maybe it's in everyone
You moved to a new place
I needed some time to think
It's hard to keep in touch when
You're dealing with grief
And then you told me you needed
To find someone else
I don't wanna be lonely
Yeah maybe it's easy to forgive myself
So I kept a few things
Just for safe keeping
I don't know if I will ever stop drinking
And then you turned to me and said
That you don't wanna die I wish
We all felt that way sometimes
And then I screamed at you
How could you be gone
You said I don't know where cruelty comes from
Maybe it's in all of us
Yeah maybe it's in everyone
