Smelted 04:06
She wakes up Sunday mornin’ And wobbles out of bed She rubs out the dream world - your mama’s still dead she said, out loud somehow She drags herself to the shower And force a bite to eat She hikes purse over shoulder Put steps to feet, steps to feet Well, Daddy is waiting on me One million things to do Well, older doesn’t mean more capable And the sun glistens in the dew Well, I’m strong as a boulder crashing I’m business first, someone has to… Do what I gotta do What I gotta do Yeah, once it’s all over Once mama’s laid to rest just so… Well, papers are signed and flowers start dying She stays till every other soul has gone No sense moving on I’m not moving on Moving on One night much later One night of dark blue The weight on her shoulders melts And the stars melt with her, too The stars melt with her, too Melt with her, too The stars melt with her, too And her weeping, it trembles low Her whole body shakes “What am I gonna do without you?” And the stars melt with her, too And the stars melt with her, too Melt with her, too
