It was in the March of the winter, I turned seventeen    That I bought those pills    I thought I would need    And I wrote a letter to my family    Said it's not your fault    And you've been good to me    It's just lately I've been feeling    Like I don't belong    Like the ground's not mine to walk upon    And I've heard that music    Echo through the house    Where my grandmother drank    By herself    And I sat watching a flower    As it was withering    I was embarrassed by it's honesty    So I'd prefer to be remembered as a smiling face    Not this fucking wreck    That's taken its place       So please forgive what I have done    No, you can't stay mad at the setting sun    Cause we all get tired, I mean eventually    There is nothing left to do but sleep       But spring came bearing sunlight    Those persuasive rays    So I gave myself a few more days    My salvation it came, quite suddenly    When Justin spoke very plainly    He said, "Of course it's your decision,    But just so you know,    If you decide to leave,    Soon I will follow."       I wrote this for a baby    Who has yet to be born    My brother's first child    I hope that womb's not too warm    Cause it's cold out here    And it will be quite a shock    To breathe this air    To discover loss    So I'd like to make some changes    Before you arrive    So when your new eyes meet mine    They won't see no lies    Just love.    Just love.       I will be pure    No, no, I know I will be pure    Like snow, like gold    Like snow, like gold    (So please forgive what I have done    No, you can't stay mad at the setting sun    Cause we all get tired, I mean eventually    There is nothing left to do but sleep)    Like snow, like snow    (So please forgive what I have done    No, you can't stay mad at the setting sun    Cause we all get tired, I mean eventually    There is nothing left to do but sleep)    Like gold, like gold, like gold
