Lyric:
She goes dark in June
I know not to call
Gallons of gas station vodka fuel her free fall
But memories never drown
No matter how she tries
Fightin’ that old fire with all those tears she cries
Why, oh why?
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.
It was far too late
By the time my sisters woke
Trapped upstairs in the playroom
Breathin’ all that smoke
We don’t know how it sparked
Or how mom escaped
But I know she’d give anything
To take her babies’ place
Why, oh why?
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.
Sometimes we don’t get to choose
Sometimes it’s just lose or lose.
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.
