๐ Lyrics
On Tuesday morning school starts at 9:00, not 8:00
So on Tuesday morning I can sleep an hour late
Usually you've left for work by then but not today
I wonder why
Mom says that you have got a headache and it's bad
She's called an ambulance, her face has changed
I go to see you, Dad
And you're tangled in the bedsheets
And the only thing you're wearing is white underwear
The paramedics stand beside your bed in navy blue
They are giants in the room
They are talking to you
"Have you been really stressed out lately?"
"Are there things that have upset you?"
You nod yes
Now you're screaming, screaming "Headache!"
And your eyes roll up and back
You are foaming, you are thrashing
And I hear your body crack
And they put you on a stretcher
And Mom has turned as white as your white underwear
Now a blur of hospital days and weeks
You are breathing through machines
Mom speaks
She says my school band has a concert out of town I'm meant to play
Will I go?
She says it's my decision
I wonder what to do
Music is the thing that connects me and you
I join the band on the bus down to Washington DC
We're onstage and we're playing
I feel a wave of peace
I get back home
I'm at my front door
I take myself inside
Mom is sitting at the table
I sit down too
She says that you died
So on Tuesday morning I can sleep an hour late
Usually you've left for work by then but not today
I wonder why
Mom says that you have got a headache and it's bad
She's called an ambulance, her face has changed
I go to see you, Dad
And you're tangled in the bedsheets
And the only thing you're wearing is white underwear
The paramedics stand beside your bed in navy blue
They are giants in the room
They are talking to you
"Have you been really stressed out lately?"
"Are there things that have upset you?"
You nod yes
Now you're screaming, screaming "Headache!"
And your eyes roll up and back
You are foaming, you are thrashing
And I hear your body crack
And they put you on a stretcher
And Mom has turned as white as your white underwear
Now a blur of hospital days and weeks
You are breathing through machines
Mom speaks
She says my school band has a concert out of town I'm meant to play
Will I go?
She says it's my decision
I wonder what to do
Music is the thing that connects me and you
I join the band on the bus down to Washington DC
We're onstage and we're playing
I feel a wave of peace
I get back home
I'm at my front door
I take myself inside
Mom is sitting at the table
I sit down too
She says that you died
