Why Aren't You Dead?

i got the letter you left under my door

knock me on my ** to the floor

never knew two words would take such a bite

it said dear john hello goodbye

i saw your car parked at that motel cascade

saw two shadows go to town on the shade

i can't believe my own lying eyes

oh my it better be a ghost than i saw

going down some other guy

you told me you loved me till death do us part

so tell me there's a truth somewhere

there used to be a heart

you said you couldn't live without me

so why aren't you dead

instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bed

just one thing that i can't get through my head

you said you couldn't live without me

so why aren't you dead

i cut your face out of our old photographs

and all the joke you left behind to the trash

girl i thought you were a goner for sure

well there's been a resurrection yeah a miracle cure

ashes to ashes

dust to dust if you can't trust a living

baby who can you trust

you said you couldn't live without me

so why aren't you dead

instead of six feet under you're in someone else's bed

just one thing that i can't get through my head

you said you couldn't live without me

so why aren't you dead

ashes to ashes dust to dust

if you can't trust a living

baby who can you trust

you couldn't live without me

so why aren't you dead

instead of six feet under

you're in someone else's bed

there's just one thing that i can't get through my head

you said you couldn't live without me

baby so i owe you dead

you said you couldn't live without me

what a surprise

instead of hanging you out

i'm laying down on the line

you spent my whole life

money you left me in the red

you said you couldn't live without me

so why are you dead

so why are you dead

why are you dead
