Stack Em Up

Louder than your Windsor V8, dusty tennis shoes

Ten years since I’d seen you, on the day I heard the news

No one riding shotgun for seven years at least

Short of breath and bitter on the 60 headed east

Stack em up

Like unanswered letters

Stack em up

You got sick and you never got better

Six foot two and flawless, still some baby fat

Two of us, one year later, here we are, imagine that

Dan wеnt to prison, he shot someone you said

Your bеautiful blonde ringlets stacked up around your head

Stack em up

Try to understand it

Stack em up

Too pretty for this planet

Some you lose track of

Some you have to bury

Some dash back toward the darkness they emerged from

Some you have to carry

In dreams your face is radiant, in dreams your laugh is loud

In dreams I see you standing right before me young and proud

What was it like for you when your moment arrived

I knew you before the amber got you, when you were alive

Stack em up

Keep your candle burning bright

Stack em up

To sleep in your shadow every night
