"Dead by December" (shadow) (LWRG)

I was dead by late December
Like the crocus and the daisies
I somehow missed the funeral
It was my obituary
Said nobody knew me
Except strange and peculiar
I didn't quite fit in
So they came for me with pitchforks

I didn't know I broke the rules
I never attended school
Didn't see the arrows coming
of the critical and the cruel

Killed off my best intentions
A bear trap of derision
There's no love in this town
For someone a little different
The bells they rang out loudly
Pallbearers dragged their feet
When my dreams died
There was no one left to mourn me

I didn't know I broke the rules
I never attended school
Didn't see the arrows coming
of the critical and the cruel

Three days, crept out the cave
A heart hoping for change
No one cleaned up the blood
The song remains the same

I didn't know I broke the rules
I never attended school
Didn't see the arrows coming
of the critical and the cruel
can I come home? (No, No, No)
can I come home? (No, No, No)
can I come home? (No, No, No)
can I come home? (No, No, No)
