She colorblind tired eyes, her hallway aching
She'll never move him, likes it that way
He's just a walker and he'll never stop walking away

It's not too soon he said and it's not too soon at all
And you might as well be dead he said
If you're afraid to fall, I said, I know her

She said, why do you stare so hard
Wrapped up like a doll in bad dreams and broken arms
Make these old bones shiver

It's not too soon he said and it's not too soon at all
And you might as well be dead he said
If you're afraid to fall, I said, I know her

The last time I saw you
You were standing in the dark
And with a freezing face
I watched you fall apart

It's not too soon he said, it's not too soon at all
You might as well be dead he said
If you're afraid to fall

I said, done your time, been in your place
I couldn't look you in the face and tell you
That it turns me on, it makes my stomach turn
I know, I know her
