Scavenger - Oma

Copied!edit Lyrics

Oh why did you, why did you
Have to leave so soon

Look at your husband, look at your son
There goes my childhood, leukemia
Hardly remember your face now your gone
Opa has given up, I think he's done

Too scared to look at your body
At your funeral
I felt disembodied
My mind was not in my skull

A smile to cover up grief
A while till I fall asleep
The only time that we we seen my grandpa cry, he couldn't speak

6th grade
April 4th
Already shitty day of course
Dad broke the news with remorse
Didn't realize your time's so short

Went - home and layed with my dog, didn't know in a couple months, he too'd be gone
World has been changing, what all went wrong
Been followed by death, I string him along
When mom said you were sick
I thought it was sum like the flu
I didn't know she meant cancer
And it would put you through

Me and my sister were broken
Our love for you couldn't be broken
The feeling between us unspoken
By the reaper, our youth had been stolen

But now that your life is over
Some of us can find closure
Not me though, I just want you back - grandpa don't got no composure

Look at how sad you made my dad, even to this day, he can hardly withstand, the fact that you're nothing but a pile of ash
Part of me went with the day that you passed
