Ewy
an ode to a bunny i killed near the a19
[Verse 1]
I hit a bunny with me car today
Not saying that I am okay
But I'm doing better than Mr. Hops
I wasn't going that fast and it wasn't my fault
I caught your back legs
Looked in my rearview mirror
Saw you writhing around on the tarmac
Oh god, oh god, oh god, oh god
[Chorus]
I could've just kept driving
I could've pretended it never happened
But I couldn't live with myself
It's emotional pain
Would there be more damage if I didn't know your fate?
I talk about damage but my legs aren't broken
I'm not on the roadside waiting to be roadkill
[Verse 2]
I turned around, put my hazards on and parked up on the veggies and leaves
We livе in the countryside, thesе things are bound to happen eventually
I get out of my car, another car speeds by and flips you over
You're still but in another reality I wish this hit you but you're still breathing
[Chorus]
I could've just kept driving
I could've pretended it never happened
But I couldn't live with myself
It's emotional pain
Would there be more damage if I didn't know your fate?
I talk about damage but my legs aren't broken
I'm not on the roadside waiting to be roadkill
[Bridge]
My foot's above your neck
I try not to look in your terrified eyes
By looking at my knee
It's raised up eternally
I can't do it, I can't do it
You're still a baby
I can't do it, I can't do it
I don't know how many blows this is gonna take
I can't do it, I can't do it
You're still a baby
I can't do it, I can't do it
I don't know how many blows this is gonna take
I went to pick you up by your tummy
You shrieked and squealed like a child begging for mummy
You looked into my eyes and
I felt paralysed and
Didn't know if putting you on the side of the road was the right thing to do
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
You're still a baby
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
I don't know how many blows this is gonna take
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
You're still a baby
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
I don't know how many blows this is gonna take
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
You're still a baby
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
I don't know how many blows this is gonna take
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
You're still a baby
I can't do it (Why?) I can't do it
I don't know how many blows this is gonna take
[Chorus]
I should've just kept driving
I should've pretended it never happened
But I couldn't live with myself
It's emotional pain
Would there be more damage if I didn't know your fate?
I talk about damage but my legs aren't broken
I'm not on the roadside waiting to be roadkill
