I’ll get up and help with the yard work
I let the outside noises always pull me under
And if I take some time to cry and just recover
Then maybe I can be there for my mother
And all those times are crystal clear
And it feels so safe to disappear
How will I get through this?
Shield myself in the color of your likeness
How am I still new to this?
Cover myself in the shade where I spread your ashes
I mean it when I say always
I let the outside noises lead me the wrong way
There’s no success without the test of leaving you behind
I will meet you there when I’m done with here, you’re always by my side
How will I get through this?
Shield myself in the color of your likeness
How am I still new to this?
Cover myself in the shade where I spread your ashes
I mean it when I say always
See it clear through the salt in your eyes
There’s no other choice that I see
I just gotta move on now
I just gotta move on now
I hear you calling me somehow
I hear you calling me somehow
Know that I’ll keep you around
I just gotta move on now
But I don’t even know how
I know gotta move on now
You know you gotta move on now
How will I get through this?
Shield myself in the color of your likeness
How am I still new to this?
Cover myself in the shade where I spread your ashes
