​i will not mourn who i was that has gone away

[Intro]
I will not mourn who I was that has gone away

[Verse 1]
I swear these crows keep getting bigger
Hanging on the fence post together
Nothing's moved, there's no winter drawn to thrill
Drawn to surrender
Somewhere deep inside my memory
There's a kid with a neck so slender
Capsized and ten years later
His arms are tattooed, he looks like a sailor

[Chorus]
But I
Will
Will not
I will not mourn who
Who I was that has gone away

[Verse 2]
Now he's assumed relaxations posture
So every day he's underwater
Isolation, cave mouth darkness
Trying to say something but it makes no sense
But somewhere deep inside his memory
There's a kid that would just go walking
24th Street thrift store shopping
He looks so happy trying on a costume

[Chorus]
But I
Will
Will not
I will not mourn who
Who I was that has gone away

[Verse 3]
How do you perceive the morning sun?
After endless days of dull repetition
Are you reaching out or are you reaching through?
Are you a ghost in an empty room?
In an empty room
Alright

[Chorus]
I will not mourn who, who I was that has gone away
Who I was that has gone away
Who I was

[Bridge]
Somewhere deep inside my memory
There's a kid with a neck so slender
Capsized and ten years later
His arms are tattooed, he looks like a sailor

[Outro]
I will not mourn who, who I was that has gone away
