[Verse 1]
I saw you so still, so cold
You laid outside the road
Your eyes were still opened slight
You left on that summer night

[Verse 2]
Your mother was so confused
Her nose dug under your bruise
She looked up at me, she spoke
"Why bother? We're all just smoke."

[Bridge]
Well, I'll tell you why
I'll tell you why
I'll tell you why
It could've been you

[Verse 3]
I drove back along the coast
With hanging gray trees so close
My passenger stayed asleep
Intoxicated deep

[Verse 4]
So I went home and stared
Out the window, I'm not prepared
If I'm just going to be the rose
You drop on my final home

It's starting to rain inside
Let's stay outside tonight
It's starting to rain inside
Let's stay outside tonight
It's starting to pour
