Why Aren't You Dead?
I got the letter you left under my doorIt knocked me on my ass to the floorNever knew two words could take such a biteIt said, "Dear Jon, hello, goodbye"
I saw your car parked outside Motel CascadeSaw two shadows go to town on the shadeI can't believe my own lyin' eyes, oh myIt better be your girlfriend I saw goin' down some other guy
You told me you loved me, 'til death do us partSo tell me there's a tombstone where there used to be a heart
You said you couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?Instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bedThere's just one thing that I can't get through my headYou said you couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?
I cut your face out of our old photographsAnd all the junk you left behind's in the trashWell, I thought you were a goner for sureWell, there's been a resurrection, yeah, a miracle cure
Ashes to ashes, dust to dustIf you can't trust the livin' baby who can you trust?
You said you couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?Instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bedJust one thing that I can't get through my headYou said you couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?
Ashes to ashes, dust to dustIf you can't trust the livin', baby who can you trust?
Couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?Instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bedThere's just one thing that I can't get through my headYou said you couldn't live without me baby, so why aren't you dead?
You said you couldn't live with out me, what a surpriseInstead of layin' you out I'm layin' down on the lineYou spend my hard-earned money, you left me in the redYou said you couldn't live without me so why aren't you dead?So why aren't you dead? Why aren't you dead?
