The Euphony Machine - Leading Ghost (When Can I?) Lyrics

You were my lady at the time
Your house got crazy
So you stayed at mine
And in the morning
My mother disciplined me for our age
When can I
When can I
When can I

You were almost 29
I wanted to marry you so bad
And make a life
I wanted to sit out in that field
I wanted to try
Your father denied
When can I
When can I
When can I

You once took me aside
And said we couldn't have a child
Then you got hoarse
While explaining
The complications inside
So I cried
So I cried

When you died
When you died
You left me stranded in the night
Yeah then you died
So I asked
When can I
When can I
When can I
When can I

It's expensive being poor
In that, poor behavior
And lacking good strong judgement
Leads you on a treachorous road
We pay for these things
Whether it be through karma, hell
Or people we love showing us when we are clearly doing wrong
Love yourself and others
Don't live your life in the next chapter
The simple ideals that we've been told since we
Were children should not be outgrown
Or taken for granted
Embrace growth
Change
And each other
