Your Mother and Father - Cass McCombs

The letter came today

Fields have turned brown

Sleep in among coffee shop

You’re new in town

What will you do now

To get along?

Now that your mother and

Father are gone?

Gone are the arguments

That sting inside

Beauty and status were

Never alive

What will you do now

To get along?

Now that your mother and

Father are gone?

Library doors are locked

You wait for day

When they will open it

You will be saved

What will you do now

To get along?

Now that your mother and

Father are gone?
