    Car Keys Across My Chest

    And with a new sunrise
    Her smile calls out to me

    I asked her to meet me in the meadow
    The meadow behind the old chapel
    The one where we met two autumns ago
    I'ts been a while since I've seen her face
    Three weeks, two days exactly

    Pull into the lot, and there's her car
    An old '88 grey Honda Accord
    She never was late or one to disappoint
    Open the door and climb out
    Shutting the door, while scanning the scene

    The stone-washed chapel seems to be collapsing
    Black-Eyed Susans scatter around her base
    A cardnial on the branch of an oak off to the left
    And the baseball field that I used to play in
    Hardly seems like its' been used recently

    Left then right, as I walk along the dusty path
    Through the meadow and towards the tree line
    Memories from her room filled with the throw pillows
    And the lavender scented candles filled my mind
    I've missed her so much, these words cannot express

    Walking through the meadow, calling out her name
    Until something catches my eye, it's bright
    In the middle of the meadow on a tree stump
    Looking closer.. there's something placed on top
    Maybe someone left an something out here

    But.. It's my note.. Yes, the one I gave her..
    It's been torn and stained in many places
    X's cover the words ''I Love You,'' Leaving ''Goodbye''
    And.. a revolver with scarlet on the end of the barrel
    It was her.. lipstick..

    While a trail of crimson fades off into grass..

    Start a band, dude, or sell your songs. You are so much better than me that it's unbelievable.

    Everyone says that I'm the best, but you're clearly the best writer on these forums. The imagry that you paint with your songs is amazing. The descriptions that you use and the words that you use are unbelievable. Amazing.
