In a chalk dotted line*

Draw a kid, left behind

Severed limbs in harmony

Strumming from a few good deeds
F#
Carry it to survive

To a bed half alive

Held before a dozen times
Bb         G#              F#
Deep inside a funeral for a friend:

Run, run
F#
Rundown the list

The memoirist

Like kindling

Burn, burn, burn, burn it down

I will stay inside

The saved

They will ignite you

The doomed

And I will write for you

Of a boy, damaged goods

Of a bench, understood

For a spell, the soul resides

In a yellow chalk outline

Carry on the camel's back

Have another heart attack

To the cure I would drive

Played that scene a hundred times to date

Today's ambition, to relate

In a sustaining saccharine state

It's what everyone's trying to sell

So hopelessly ill-fated everyday

They will inspire him

The saved Innocently filling graves
