5 More Minutes

I can't breathe

Or slow it down

Leah comes in

To get me back on the ground

It's all I wanted

But not what I thought

I don't dream

I just wish a lot

I slide down the snow

In the backyard with my older brother

Then I come down the stairs

In my cap and gown to find my mother

I got so old so fast

My first love

Was my stuffed lamb

I'm twenty-one with her still in my hands, and

I look up to my dad

And ask him to help me touch the sky

And I look up quizzes

Will I go to hell when I die?

I got so old so fast

And I cannot go back

Five more minutes?

Just five more minutes, please

Five more minutes, God, just

Five more minutes, please?

Five more minutes

Just five more minutes, God, just

Five more minutes, please

Just five more minutes, please?
