I've been thinking 'bout the eagle you painted for your grandfather I've been thinking 'bout your new room with the white walls at the shelter I've been thinking 'bout the bullies that'll keep you from going back to highschool And I've been thinking 'bout your red hair - you never looked us in the eyes I want to tell you that it's all gonna get better I want to tell you that it's all gonna get easier I want to tell you that it's all gonna get better I want to tell you that it's all gonna get easier You took the car and the two kids and you left him in the mountains I know you're tired of the same shit and the money keeps disappearing I really didn't realize how hard you've been struggling I really didn't realize how alone you've been - how lonely Do you think it's gonna be alright? Do you think it's gonna be alright? God I hope it's gonna be alright God I hope it's gonna be alright I've got a list it's been growing since I was thirteen years old And you told me what your brother did I've got a list it's got strangers and fathers And guys from around our town And every single name still hits me in the gut - like a bullet in the gut Yeah every single name still hits me in the gut - like a bullet in the gut Yeah every single name still hits me in the gut - like a bullet in the gut Yeah every single name still hits me in the gut - like a bullet in the gut
