Fireworks
worlds greatest dad
Watching fireworks
On the front lawn
Humming melodies
To all my loved ones lost
I didn’t know it then
You put the gun to your head
And I could feel the heat roll off of my cheeks
While they burst and bloom, like all of the voices in crowded rooms
Made me so nervous I couldn’t speak
Well, I'll just stare down at my feet
For years and years and years
I don’t know you
Like I used to
We haven’t talked much
Since your big move out
I bet I’d be so proud, to look at you now
And I could feel the steam roll off of my teeth
All those sleepless nights out on the roof of your parents, I
Could’ve sworn that I’d see you soon
Could’ve sworn we were staring at the same Moon that night
And I can feel the heat roll off of my cheeks
While they burst and bloom, like all of the voices in crowded rooms
Made me so nervous I couldn’t speak
Well, I’ll just stare down at my feet
For years and years and years, God
