Katie digs a hole With a five-foot pole And lays in the dirt Tries to light a match To burn up all the past But it doesn't work Covers up her legs And pretends she's dead Just to trick the sun Lays around for years Soil soaked with tears But it never comes Daddy's lost at sea Drowned in apathy And five dollar booze Mommy keeps her cool Wipes away her drool From a midday snooze Brother Danny's dead Still he lives in her head Like a fever dream She makes the leaves turn red When she gets in bed She's Kerosene
