lyrics

she pulled her paisley bandana
over a patch of thinning hair,
slid her feet across the hospital sheet
and tried not to look so scared

She could barely sit up
Let alone stand
Looking at me like a fragile leaf
Shaking in the sand
So it goes, so it goes

she caked another layer
of cherry chapstick on her lips
even when she couldn't hold down the water
still she'd never let the scabs split

you can almost see her smile
in the seams of October clouds
you can almost hear the sound of her laughter
in the cries of the geese leaving town

so it goes so it goes
watch everything you know
freeze and thaw
spread so thin it all evaporates

the other day I saw her sister
hugging the nurses down the hall
good news never comes around here so clearly
if it ever comes at all

she could never find the words
what could words ever explain
you don't need to understand the lightning
to feel the sting of the rain

so it goes so it goes
watch everything you know
freeze and thaw
spread so thin it all evaporates
