Lyrics

When I was breathing, they kept their distance

Only called when they needed assistance

Never asked how I was holding on

Just took what they could and they were gone

But now I'm laid out in a box of pine

They're flying in from different timelines

Crying tears they never shed before

Preaching love they never showed no more

They'll drive four miles to see me dead

But not a soul checked in when I bled

Now they're dressed in black, heads bowed low

Saying things they never let me know

I was the black sheep left to roam

Now they're here like I was never alone

Funny how the silence breaks

When it's too damn late

They post my name like they knew my pain

But I walked through fire in the pouring rain

No calls, no letters, no helping hand

Just empty words and shifting sand

Now they're lining up to pay respect

To a soul they chose to disconnect

Preacher says, "I touched their lives"

But where were they when I tried to survive?

They'll drive four miles to see me dead

But not a soul checked in when I bled

Now they're dressed in black, heads bowed low

Saying things they never let me know

I was the black sheep left to roam

Now they're here like I was never alone

Funny how the silence breaks

When it's too damn late

Don't bring me flowers when I'm gone

If you couldn't stand me when I was strong

I'd rather die with truth than live with lies

So save your tears and alibis

They'll drive four miles to see me dead

But not a soul checked in when I bled

Now they're dressed in black, heads bowed low

Saying things they never let me know

I was the black sheep left to roam

Now they're here like I was never alone

Funny how the silence breaks

When it's too damn late

When I was breathing, they kept their distance
Only called when they needed assistance
Never asked how I was holding on
Just took what they could and they were gone
But now I'm laid out in a box of pine
They're flying in from different timelines
Crying tears they never shed before
Preaching love they never showed no more
They'll drive four miles to see me dead
But not a soul checked in when I bled
Now they're dressed in black, heads bowed low
Saying things they never let me know
I was the black sheep left to roam
Now they're here like I was never alone
Funny how the silence breaks
When it's too damn late
They post my name like they knew my pain
But I walked through fire in the pouring rain
No calls, no letters, no helping hand
Just empty words and shifting sand
Now they're lining up to pay respect
To a soul they chose to disconnect
Preacher says, "I touched their lives"
But where were they when I tried to survive?
They'll drive four miles to see me dead
But not a soul checked in when I bled
Now they're dressed in black, heads bowed low
Saying things they never let me know
I was the black sheep left to roam
Now they're here like I was never alone
Funny how the silence breaks
When it's too damn late
Don't bring me flowers when I'm gone
If you couldn't stand me when I was strong
I'd rather die with truth than live with lies
So save your tears and alibis
They'll drive four miles to see me dead
But not a soul checked in when I bled
Now they're dressed in black, heads bowed low
Saying things they never let me know
I was the black sheep left to roam
Now they're here like I was never alone
Funny how the silence breaks
When it's too damn late
