Die Young

If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a, bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song So Mike wakes up, his taste buds from moms pancakes He's late for work, it's eight, but wait, yesterday was his birthday You know how that goes, he drank a little too much, had fun Blew a few blunts so he decided to call in late for work, he'll be in at lunch His boss said it was fine, wasn't mad at all Mike was a great person, in fact, he had it all Charm, charisma, a man always standing tall Even took a taxi home from all the alchohol, he was responsible He made the impossible look possible He had the same job for 20 years at the same hospital Today's the first day of spring, he's looking out the porch window, he can hear the birds sing He's got a smile on his face, takes a deep breath and thats when the motherfucking phone rings His mom's in the hospital, in critical condition He drops the phone and throws some clothes on, I can't express how he's feeling He dashes to his car screaming, God please help Jumps in the ride, rides off, forgets to vasten his seatbelt He's flipping out screaming, I gotta be dreaming She's too young to be leaving, presses on the gas, go ahead speed demon Too much traffic so he's swerving in the lanes Passed a red light, times slows down That's when another car hits his side and Mike goes down If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a, bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song Crystal wakes up from a long night, she's feeling alright Looks around, only thing that she's missing is a love life As much as she puts up a front, she's dying inside Always smiles and cracks jokes but she's crying inside So back to the story at hand, she's 23 looking for a glorious man Did I mention she has a little boy but I think she's lost cause the guy that she talks to Don't want nothing to do with her cause of her child, so she falls into depression, awesome Not cool and now her attitude is nuts too Like who are you dude? I don't trust you, get out of my face, fuck you A lot of anger pent up, she used to have inner beauty Now she's in her booty, and barely shows an inner cutie She drinks herself to sleep after work, who woulda thought laughter hurts? To her, it kills her after every slurp Tonight she thinks why the hell is she on this worthless earth so she decides to do something stupid She sneaks in her parents room and take's the gun so she can use it Like teaching her ex a lesson for being so abusive Now let me remind you, she's been drinking like a psychotic abused chick Headed to the door and her child is sitting on the couch Looks at her and says momma, where's daddy? I miss him I'll be back honey, I'll be sure to kiss him If I die young, bury me in Satin Lay me down on a, bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song Yeah, who is it? It's me, open up the door, it's raining What, what do you want? Just open up the door, hurry up, I gotta talk to you Okay but you've got five minutes then you gotta go Hey! Crystal, what is that? Huh, No, no! I fucking loved you! I'm so sorry baby, I can't take this anymore If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a, bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a, bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song
