future war veterans - chalkboard lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
i still remem*

[verse 1]
i still remember the night you cried on my bedsheets
that was the day you died
but i know when we woke up you were more alive than you ever were
and i touched your scruffy chin and i loved it all the more

i wanna spend the nights with you
you ease the things that are coming to me
and i hope i do the same for you

[bridge]
[scatting]

[chorus]
and when it’s all said and done
i’ll be the one
holding the black umbrella

[verse 2]
and n0body will know
they wouldn’t buy it if i told them so
and your story will be sold
on a paperback college textbook
but they’ll spell your name wrong
and they won’t mention the songs
you used to listen to
god i hated them so much

but it doesn’t matter what i thought
i’m less important than what you fought
i stay awake at night
wondering if you’ll come home this time

you’re so grand and important and big
i’m just a mere little… figment
and i’ve made peach with that

but the stress is too much
as i pour me another cup
of existentialist dread
as you go out to war again

[chorus]
and when it’s all said and done
i’ll be the one
holding the black umbrella

[bridge]
it’s three transgressions for…
for four i will not revoke the punishment
it’s three transgressions for…
for four i will not revoke the punishment
[outro]
and your father will be proud
and your mother would be so proud
and i will be proud
