If children were wishes[00:00:20]
My mother spent hers on impossible things[00:00:23]
My brother was money[00:00:31]
My sister was love and I was world peace[00:00:33]
My brother he spent it[00:00:41]
My sister got pregnant and all that I'm worth[00:00:44]
Will only come true[00:00:52]
When there are no more of us left on this earth[00:00:54]
If hearts were machines that kept[00:01:23]
Running forever automatically[00:01:26]
Then you wouldn't be in that[00:01:34]
Hospital bed on that saline I V[00:01:37]
And if it's your diet you stubbornly swear[00:01:44]
That it wasn't your fault[00:01:49]
You rather be dead in that hospital bed[00:01:55]
Than cut back on sugar and salt[00:02:00]
Oh aren't you afraid of[00:02:26]
Living in a major american city[00:02:30]
So marry a stupid[00:02:37]
Unreachable girl who's impossibly pretty[00:02:40]
And I've seen you drive everyday of your life[00:02:48]
And it's always a rush[00:02:53]
And I have to wonder[00:02:58]
How I ever let you do something so dangerous[00:03:01]
And so I suppose this is[00:03:09]
Just how it goes no matter how I try[00:03:21]
I just have to watch you get[00:03:31]
Weaker and weaker till you finally die[00:03:40]
But I have to remember[00:03:54]
The wish of my mother and all that I'm worth[00:04:12]
Which will only come true[00:04:34]
When there are no more of us left on this earth[00:04:56]
