Madeline

There's a girl back home I use to know

She cried her self to sleep every night

We all knew

We all knew

Only girl who would ever compromise

Strike a deal with the devil to save a night

We all knew

We all knew

She tried to call me a month ago

To sing me a song that she just wrote

But I wasn't home

I should've know

That time had taken it toll

She had no place to go

They found her body resting by the river

I never said good bye

I wish I would have tried

I couldn't hear her cries

As she filled her veins with light

Until she saw the light

I remember we would hide behind the trees

Smoking cigarettes until our throats would bleed

Those were the days

Those were the days

Yeah

Never scared

Never worried that the summer would end

Invincible to every sharp end

We drove so fast

Thought it would last

But time had taken it toll

She had no place to go

They found her body resting by the river

I never said good bye

I wish I would have tried

I couldn't hear her cries

As she filled her veins with light

Until she saw the light

Madeline

Madeline

You will be remembered

Madeline

Madeline

We still have September

Madeline

Madeline

We'll see you on the other side

Die

If I could could turn back time

I'd find a way to remind you

That some how you could try to give in and fight the good fight

Oh you didn't have to die

You filled your veins with lies

My precious Madeline
