There's no excuse for excuses Healing hurts like you're swallowing bruises It's true you didn't choose this Healing hurts when we love who we're losing Now you, are only illusion Healing hurts, makes me feel stupid I was eating a sandwich when I got the phone call Now I can't get what was said Out of my head, my head is heavy lead Writing a letter to the dead That's all A simple thought of you can bring me to tears Death is the disaster, a storm that never clears A Nostalgic collage in my brain A mirage, then you're gone, insane Moments turn to stone Photographs locked in frames Can't imagine your face ever getting older I wondered how long you'd live if you got sober I wonder how those drugs got a hold of you? I wonder if you ever felt love like I do?
