lyrics

this blessed day I'll cross my I's and dot my T's
we both knew that this was coming
and it's just as bad as we thought it might be
I heard the wind before I ever felt the blow
I dug a hole near that gazebo
but I didn't know what to put in it though
I taped a note onto a wooden beam it read
to any living person reading this
I just wanted to take a moment and
tell you that something happened near to here
it isn't clear exactly what
even after what I've been told has been 10 years
and I just thought that perhaps you should know
I wish I had some more to say about it
but it's become very clear I don't
I wrote sincerely but left off my name
just in case the person reading
was looking for somebody to blame
and as I glided through the gate this time instead
the pavement pushed up something
I had written long ago and promptly ripped to shreads
just couldn't not hear Main Street's divine bells
and it's a joke how fucking meaningless
these four lines must seem to anybody else

just please paint me an abstract painting
just please sing to me lady in waiting
just please hold the whole entire world in your hands
just please hold my cold sweat drenched hand
