Call the parents, tell them I'm okay
I've been drinking just to stay insane
What my friends think, what they're gonna say
Dressed in violets, covered on my grave
In the same way, that we called them saints
Tried our best to, be the ones who ain't
Mess around with, all the bad shit yeah
Can't decide now, decide who I am
For the thousands
And the ones who
Cared to call but they never called for me
All the people
In the steeples
Pray to God and hope you pray for me
And I found out just why she came
For all the blood that's been rushing right through my veins
Call the parents, tell them I'm okay
I've been drinking just to stay insane
What my friends think, what they're gonna say
Dressed in violets, covered on my grave
I've been holding onto hope so
I could come back and my cold heart still beats
I've been fearing different paths for
Future times when I'm the one in need
Break the silence, I've been gone for days
You been good dear? I can't say the same
Different body still the same old face
I've been trying to communicate
For the thousands
And the ones who
Cared to call but they never called for you
All the people
In the steeples
Pray to God and hope he takes me too
And I found out just why she says
For all that's good, more bad will come and in the end
Call the parents, tell them I'm okay
I've been drinking just to stay insane
What my friends think, what they're gonna say
Dressed in violets, covered on my grave
I've been holding onto hope so
I could come back and my cold heart still beats
I've been fearing different paths for
Future times when I'm the one in need
And my heart it keeps getting colder
3 years of life with no closure
Keeping the dust off my shoulder
And my heart it keeps getting colder
Call the parents, tell them I'm okay
I've been drinking just to stay insane
What my friends think, what they're gonna say
Dressed in violets, covered on my grave
I've been holding onto hope so
I could come back and my cold heart still beats
I've been fearing different paths for
Future times when I'm the one in need
