Mourning You

I still got sand in my eyelids
I've been looking for a tragedy
Something to tear out this cycle
Something to blow off these leaves

So this death will feel more natural
Spin ‘em off into the blue
I never gave up on nothing, child
But there’s more to life than mourning you

Your mama said she slept with a Beatle
Sounds better than saying she slept with Ringo
Either way your standards are higher babe
Either way I should have known

That your father he has his delusions
Your mama writes out all of his blues
I'll be gone tomorrow baby
There's more to life than mourning you

When you’re born somebody will hold you
When we die I guess we hope for the same
A little bit jaded on blue sky
A little bit afraid of the flame

I know this road is wide open
Making way for something new
Kiss your photo throw it into the fire babe
There's more to life than mourning you
