Lyric:
She goes dark in June
I know not to call
Gallons of gas station vodka fuel her free fall
Â
But memories never drown
No matter how she tries
Fightin’ that old fire with all those tears she cries
Â
Why, oh why?
Â
They say everything happens for a reason
But they’ve never walked in her shoes
They haven’t lost two lifetimes more than any mother ever should lose
Who says everything happens for a reason?
I say everything happens.
I say everything happens.
Â
It was far too late
By the time my sisters woke
Trapped upstairs in the playroom
Breathin’ all that smoke
Â
We don’t know how it sparked
Or how mom escaped
But I know she’d give anything
To take her babies’ place
Â
Why, oh why?
Â
They say everything happens for a reason
But they’ve never walked in her shoes
They haven’t lost two lifetimes more than any mother ever should lose
Who says everything happens for a reason?
I say everything happens.
I say everything happens.
Â
Sometimes we don’t get to choose
Sometimes it’s just lose or lose.
Â
They say everything happens for a reason
But they’ve never walked in her shoes
They haven’t lost two lifetimes more than any mother ever should lose
Who says everything happens for a reason?
I say everything happens.
Yeah I say everything happens.
I say everything happens.
