Wouldn't it be nice?

Wouldn’t it be nice I think

to lay on the grass with you

It’d be like some spring picnic

watching clouds and birds go by

listening to those passing trains

laughing together when it rains.

Its hard to live through this shit

when ghosts of you dance around

haunting what’s left of my beer

damaged brain.

There’s no one here to listen

you’re lying in that pink coffin still

you were the best of my friends

and if I could only talk to you

I’d pick out a coffin of my own

perhaps I’d put a bullet in my head

just to lay in the grass

with you

again.

Was mowing the yard today, and I thought about Mom's grave site.
