Lyrics
Looking back over my shoulder
Wondering if you’re still there running for help
Wouldn't be surprised with the hand you were dealt
Liquor store’s closed and wine won’t do
Weed store’s open but your dad won’t approve
Take a pill see what it’ll do
Remembering those days of standing at the shore
A canned ham trailer and a deer at your front door
Still can’t believe you bought him food from the store
You taught me how to lose
You taught me how to lose someone
In the darkness just before the light
You cried into a phone to a sleeping boy alone
Your brother’s in the next room screaming at the screen
His mother downstairs is struggling to breathe
Still can’t believe such a cruel cruel thing
You're crying in the last seat of the minivan
I-5 traffic try to drown it out with the fan
All I could do was to hold your hand
You taught me how to lose
You taught me how to lose someone
In the darkness just before the light
You cried into a phone to a sleeping boy alone
I’m so sorry that I fell asleep
The only damn minute that you really needed me
I was paralyzed by how to be
You taught me how to lose
You taught me how to lose someone
In the darkness just before the light
You cried into a phone to a sleeping boy alone
