I'm Not Swell Little Firefly

So I'll sew my eyelids shut
So I don't have to be reminded of us
Lately I've been distant from everything
I've been trying to make these people laugh 
I'm crying too much so my words are coming out mumbled

If I crash my car into the tree by your mom's house
Would you hold it against me
If I come up to the door knocking asking if your home

20 something years and I'm still depressed
Could he please take the knife out
It's been there 2 years now it's turning me jaded
So I'll sew my eyelids shut
So I don't have to be reminded of us

If I crash my car into the tree by your mom's house
I won't even bother I know you're not home
I should feel alive but I don't

So I'll sew my eyelids shut
So I don't have to be reminded of us
The only thing I'm taking to bed is my demons
So I'll count the sheep but they're slowly turning to you
Bones in ripped up flesh that's all I am now
I'd sell my soul to be happy by you

If I crash my car into the tree by your mom's house
Would you come out wondering what happened
I should stop using these hyperboles

It's the same old shit when it comes to you
I want you to come back but it will never happen
So I'm stuck in this vice trying to find my way through hell
I'm too stubborn to give up on someone I love
So I'll sew my eyelids shut
So I cn be reminded of us
