remind me

the Tanbark tunnel held me like a cradle
the womb that let me down so long ago
i turned the headlights off
and let her carry me

remind me why
you can't carry me
do i not deserve
the reds and yellows before the fall

no flying, just falling,
just dead and i told you
this morning
i still may kill myself

you got sick to your stomach
and swore it wasn't me
i wonder if we can keep
each other happy

She held me like the body that could not hold me
with uncertainty
remind me why
we can't be happy
