Dead Reckoning - Free Throw

Reflections from the bottom of a glass

A long night spent pondering the past

Life and everything that it’s worth

Everyone I know could go at any second from this Earth

How would it make me feel to never fucking see them again

How would it make them feel to never fucking see me again

I don’t know, I remember the Summer

I remember the pain

On my mother’s face as she sat me down

And tried her best to explain

I sat there on those steps and did my best to take it in

I tried to trace back every lesson you had taught me until then

I tried my hardest to remember what we’d spoken of last

No amount of effort I put in could bring the memory back

How was I supposed to know I’d never fucking see you again?

How could I know that I’d never fucking see you again

I tried my hardest to remember the last time we embraced

But I went blank as the emotion made its way to my face

And I cried

That’s right

The small child inside me cries

The small child inside me cries

The small child inside me cries

The small child inside me cries

The small child inside me cries
