Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Freeway signs that I hid behind
I had no idea what I was missing
Wichitalk your heart out, and
You know that I will listen
Every year that passes feels like
Just a couple days
You were passed out on the tracks
When I had thought I heard the train
And so I carried you through the thick and thin
We were thick as thieves and we were close as kin
Coffee, nicotine pump through our veins
As you start to cry, I try to explain
[Verse 2]
We were in the trench and our clothes were drenched
I could feel the bad news coming to the west coast
I've got forty ounces asking me
"What do you miss the most?"
And I feel so fucking selfish
While I'm asking you these things
If we could make it out to Oakland
Maybe drown these rotten dreams
But I've got no excuse, nothing to blame
For the horrid thoughts in this wretched brain
Nothing makes no sense, so I speak my mind
Haven't moved on yet but God, I'm trying
[Chorus]
And I was just wondering if your sister was alive
What do you think she'd look like in high school?
When you said, "Come on in, the water's fine"
I whispered, "I don't want to hurt you"
And right now, I can't help but ask you
"Do the dead grow older too?
As much as I loved being ten years old
I like to think they do"
[Verse 3]
And nothing makes me crushed like that Greyhound bus
Reading bright yellow Wichita
I want to go back down to the pitcher's mound
Where the midnight oil burned
You told me to grow up while I was throwing up
In the Del Mar bathroom stall
It's hard to make amends when your best friends
Stop returning all your calls
And when you placed your hands on either side
Of my meager frame, where the fleas reside
With the panicked look on my pallid face
I climbed through the thorns and thistles, couldn't see shit, so ungrateful
Thinking to myself, "This isn't happening"
[Chorus]
And I was just wondering if your sister was alive
What do you think she'd look like in high school?
When you said, "Come on in, the water's fine"
I whispered, "I don't want to hurt you"
And right now, I can't help but ask you
"Do the dead grow older too?
As much as I loved being ten years old
I like to think they do"
