Every April I'd sit here and cry
I'd rock my body to the dead and die

Looking at your gravestone here and now
Makes me wonder why and how

How it was you
Why it wasn't me

The rain would wash over my body
And I'd hug my knees like anybody

The crash made a burn
Like scars that seem to churn

I never felt so alone
With the shaking of my bones

Now looking at your gravestone
I just see what's set in stone.
