Hugs From Grandma

While I was waiting for you to arrive, I made some friends
I was worshipped then buried alive
And now I think I need a second opinion
I'm always waiting for something to happen
I met a carcass by the side of the road, and named him you
Gave him money and a place of his own, ate all this food
I think we're gonna get married
And then we'll finally be happy

But how long until he cracks and finds no reason to live
I called him back, he said his teeth were crawling over his chin
I wish I could have seen
Every day he finds new ways to bleed

I took you fishing but you leapt from the boat, I followed you
At the bottom we decided to float
And then you said you liked the feeling of drowning, and crawling under the houses
I knew I never should have left you alone, look at your room
You're an insect hiding under a stone, when you get blue
One day there gonna be sorry
'Till then you'll never part from me

But how long until you crack and find no reason to live
And I called you back, you said this pain was just too much to live with
Said that we'd do more next time
But for now, it's over

I woke up in the morning and I found he was dead, I took his shoes
Ran three-quarters of a mile to my bed
And now I think I need a minute of breathing
I see his face in the ceiling
He said he'd swallowed all the dirt he could find
And that it's all so easy if you leave it behind
We'll never spend another minute together
And I'll be talking to ceilings forever

But how long until I crack and find no reason to live
And I call you back and say this pain's another reason to dig
We could leave it on a high
If you say it's over
