Don't Explode! - The Nothing Lyrics

I met Jenn back in middle school.
She's really one of the few people that just immediately clicked with me.
We did everything together.
After school events, Mario Kart, and hell, she even showed me how to bake.

When people ask how she passed, I usually just say she took her own life.
How the hell do I tell someone she overdosed?
Seemed like she thought the only fun to be had out here was getting high or partying.
When I told her I wasn't having any of it and wouldn't support it, she went off the deep end and 5 months later she was gone.

I watched your eyes that were trained at the sky
The last time I saw you before you died
It seemed as though I was watching a ghost
It seemed the amphetamine controlled the host

I know you're gone
It's been so damn long
But I can't believe it still haunts me

The drugs you took
Closed your own book
And now the stars seem further away

She sits on the cold steps of block 14
Cigarette ash collects by her feet
Staring at the concrete trembling
Life slowly disassembling

I'm sure there's a ghost in there somewhere
Begging and clawing and pleading for an answer
An answer to her screams and cries for comfort
An answer to any f*cking thing she said

Begging for the nothing after death
