Wake Up, Ma And Pa Are Gone

Well I shake
My head
At how
Perfect some song is sounding in my car
Driving toward the country for the month
I am
Still on the make
And this place is full of friends that I’ve known
They saw me too and laughed a warm laugh again
Lay on
The warm grass of my lawn
And shake hands
«I've met you once before»
Call to the neighbors down below
Tell them «Wake up! Ma and Pa are gone!»
Don’t waste
A breath
How could
You’ve spent your life on something so cold?
It’s flickered out you’re lost and you’re scared now
And I need
This life
These friends
My home
I’m on the curb smiling
Remember this 'cause things are never that bad
You feel right
I was probably scared
While I was gone
You were sleeping upstairs
When I first heard
You barely made a sound
And I fell first
Isn’t it perfect how?
It all comes down
To a moment like this
When I’m leaving for
Something bigger than us
Remember that
Remember that?
I called my mom and she said
She’s never been so impressed
