Yeah
It feels like yesterday
I picture vividly just how it happened
They called my wife instead of me she's on the couch it's tragic
Was diagnosed with a disease and what they found is bad it
Could be some months or maybe weeks no matter how we map it
Our legendary ball of fur was running out of magic
And at a moment when our dreams were falling down and crashing
Was focused on the future then, not the now and that's when
Everything was spiraling around the present now we're passed it
Best case was maybe far as summer, somehow you lasted
Until we made it through our darker days and now we're laughing
Sometimes I wonder if you knew, think about it baffled
How you defied every odd and stuck around and now we're
Staring at your pictures on the walls, howling at them
And when I'm in the studio I hear the sound of scratches
I never got the courage I'll never throw out your mattress
You provided all the fire for the pack and now you're ashes
Yeah, don't waste a moment every hour passes
I was writing you were laying on the ground and napping
And I'm still writing I'm still working on the album asking
What could we be missing sifting through our different hourglasses?
Right after Christmas we were bound for sadness
Right after we got all our wishes and built up our callous
Right after we were done with living in our sour patches
After we consistently could climb up every mountain that's when
Brought the others with us, out of tissues out of napkins
Brought your favorite toys, put 'em in a towel and wrapped 'em
I won't forget when I was holding you, how you acted
I could see it in your eyes that you were finally now relaxing
Now we're playing in the back it's not as nearly loud in fact it's
Like part of us is somewhere else running around and having
A blast and where you used to lay is now a flower basket
I remember vividly, exactly how it happened
Staring at your pictures on the walls, howling at them
And when I'm in the studio I hear the sound of scratches
I never got the courage I'll never throw out your mattress
You provided all the fire for the pack and now you're ashes
Yeah, don't waste a moment every hour passes
I was writing you were laying on the ground and napping
And I'm still writing I'm still working on the album asking
What could we be missing sifting through our different hourglasses?
Yeah
I was writing you were laying on the ground and napping
I'm still writing I'm still working on the album asking
What could we be missing sifting through our different hourglasses?
