After Jaylen Hotdogfingers was Incinerated, Mike Townsend (the disappointment) replaced her as the pitcher for the Seattle Garages. In this song, he is tormented by the guilt of this and states that she will be resurrected (which does end up happening).
[Verse 1]
Every morning
It's in my head
Even before
I can get out of bed
As I sip my coffee
With Oatly instead
It whispers in the silence
"Jayleen is dead"
[Verse 2]
Every practice
When they get on base
I feel it always
That empty space
And a horrible feeling
I can't erase
That She should be here
In my place
[Verse 3]
I know what it is
I have to do
A truth I think I-
I always knew
A sacrifice must be made
Before we're through
And I'll do whatever it takes just to
See you
[Verse 4]
Every evening
It's in my head
While I'm wide awake
Lying in my bed
I toss and I turn
Filled with dread
So I scream into the silence
"Jaylen won't stay dead!"
