Overnight at the hospital again
A steady diet of sweet and sour chicken
They got her hooked to that heartbeat machine
And I've already read every waiting room magazine
It's in the leaves
Lost sense of all time and space
I can barely even picture her face
4000 days
Overnight camp in the August sun
My last little bit of innocent fun
My sister cried when she saw my sunburn
Her aloe vera eyes said the cancer took a turn
It's in the leaves
Lost sense of all time and space
I can barely even picture her face
Will it fade away?
I haven't seen it since I started sixth grade
4000 Days
1000 days I can't remember
200 days I can't forget
