Calico Kitten

Backseat Goodbye
If my life had a soundtrack it would be acoustic
With songs about the way I laugh
At my ability to love things that I can't have
If my life were a movie, it would be black and white with still-frames in color and hue
The credits would say a simple phrase like, "You aren't what you say or what you do, so don't worry so much, just get on with a life that you love"
I had a good day
Since I didn't die or have to wait
In any really long lines at the store
Me I like to make music
You just like to make war
There's a calico kitten prancing across a rooftop
Smiling at the gray withered sky
He's watching all the cars as they pass by
Their blinkers go click, click, click
This new height makes him homesick
He misses his mother the most
And his long days by the window
They're long, long gone
If my life had a soundtrack it would be acoustic
With songs about the way I laugh
And my ability to lose everything I have, everything I have
If my life were a movie, it would be black and white with still-frames in color and hue
The credits would say a simple phrase like, "You aren't what you say or what you do, so don't worry so much, just get on with a life that you love"
If you're alright, then I'm alright, If you're alright, then I'm alright
It feels good to be alive again
I can finally see the sky again
It feels good to be alive again
I'm finally alright again
