Said it wasn't his fault
He was almost convinced
Around her heart
She built a fence
She couldn't sleep
She couldn't speak
She fell in a hole
And it was deep
He tried to help
But he was hurt too
Seeing her body
Almost unglued
Felt so much grief
Mostly undue
So between them
A rift grew
Communication broke down
She was never around
Around them there was always a cloud
Of silence
That was so loud
It hurt them both
This outward growth
But they were broken
With nowhere to go
They thought about counseling
But it was too late
A seed had sprouted
And grew into hate
A crack had appeared
In the ice that they skate
He sat alone
In the house he never wanted
Feeling so emotionally stunted
He didn't know how to feel
He didn't know what was real
The voices hold him
The voices scold him
He can't do anything
Can't control them
He would make them stop
Went to cemetery after dark
Grabbed the 45
That ruined his life
Put it to his head
And let one fly
Blood soaked the grave
Of his little girl
Deep inside
Something started to stir
