when she hit the ripe old age of eight
her father got down on his knees
and said "should I pull the trigger?"
to which she could only freeze
"I don't know" was all she could say
words that haunt her to this day
there's barely a day goes by
the moment doesn't replay
she was from Colorado
she told us all 'bout the cliffs
and of all of the jumpers
and I asked "what if
all of the suicides went unidentified?"
to which she never replied
she just shrugged her shoulders
as we all fell in love with her
and Christ, can you blame us?
she was
the best thing that ever happened to
ant of us
when she was born she inherited
her father's illness, no less
has spent her life taking pills for her ills
how she copes is anyone's guess
and though now she may bask in the sun
the one thought that reminds me we're still not done
is that when her father dies
she'll inherit the gun
