Mourning You

I still got sand in my eyelids

I've been looking for a tragedy

Something to tear out this cycle

Something to blow off these leaves

So this death will feel more natural

Spin ‘em off into the blue

I never gave up on nothing, child

But there’s more to life than mourning you

Your mama said she slept with a Beatle

Sounds better than saying she slept with Ringo

Either way your standards are higher babe

Either way I should have known

That your father he has his delusions

Your mama writes out all of his blues

I'll be gone tomorrow baby

There's more to life than mourning you

When you’re born somebody will hold you

When we die I guess we hope for the same

A little bit jaded on blue sky

A little bit afraid of the flame

I know this road is wide open

Making way for something new

Kiss your photo throw it into the fire babe

There's more to life than mourning you
