I'm sorry I broke your bowl
it fell from the counter I had no control
I was scrubbing your dishes and greasy pans
but my mind was somewhere else
making other plans
the one I loved the most in life has gone
it was a cold december morning
she slipped away without a warning
and I'm trying to figure out how to carry on
she has burst into ether
I can't hold her in my skin
or lay buried beneath her
or free her can I free her
and begin again
a bitter wind blows through my field
I raise my hands up to the sky
a bigger truth will be revealed in time
but I just sit here asking
why why why
she has burst into ether
I can't hold her in my skin
or lay buried beneath her
or free her can I free her
and begin again
and my veins fill with blood
and I don't know how
to keep my head above the flood
but I need to live now
so I'm sorry I broke your bowl
I know to you it seems a waste
but it's not like it's ripped away your soul
or left a great big hole
that cannot be replaced
