Woe Me!

I gave it all away

But I don’t know why

My friends are tired

Of slowly watching me die

My feet are tires

On the pavement of life

I’m going where I belong

Lit up like the Fourth of July

I don’t remember

What my parents gave to me

I remember unlearning it

Through years of therapy

Now I’m sick and I’m tired

Even my body’s against me

Woe oh, oh me

Oh me, oh my

Woe oh, oh me

Oh me, oh my

I remember being children

Skateboarding in the street

Never knowing what came after

Would scar the hell out of me

Woe oh, oh me

Oh me, oh my

Sing me darlin to sleep

With your siren’s ease of mind

Make it quick make it painless

Make sure they remember me

Spread my love, spread my kindness

Burn the bad in an effigy

Woe oh, oh me

Oh me, oh my

Sing me darlin to sleep

For the rest of my life

Woe oh, oh me

Oh me, oh my

Woe oh, is me

For the rest of my life

Woe oh, oh me

Oh me, oh my

Sing me darlin’ to sleep

For the rest of my life
