16 Years to go ( and then we're done) (c) dwatchorn 2009

 

 

I met a dead man across the road he told me I had sixteen years to go, and

Look out for the potholes in the road

Met a little farmboy ‘cross the street who said we were 20 years before

Get a life and let it go

 And I know that deep inside of me, in spite of me there’s

This little 10 year old still worshipping the ground you walked on

I wish I felt that you’re beside me, the light in me

I’m only half the man you were

 

There was a very angry little boy, amused himself in puddles.

Playing in those potholes in the road.

He became an angry man a little lost and puzzled

When you die where do you go.

 

He didn’t feel someone beside him, to die with him

The little 10 yr old with nothing left but spite in him

When he was 15 he found god again, someone to blame

Im only half the man you were x4

 

CH                     

I never wanted to be, all the things I faded out to be

I just wanted to be, all the things I wanted you to see

I could never be you. Your shoes are too big for me

I’ll try to stand on my own now you’re dead, why did you leave me alone. I miss you.

 

 

Hang another bottle from the tree, swing it with the other ones,

I hear them rattle in the breeze, keepin’ away the ghosts of all the bad things I have done

One bottle for each misery, one bottle for everything that’s missing

I miss you.
