back when I was teething
when I was barely breathing
I crawled wall to wall
and I saw that something was missing
time went by I was stronger
I couldn't take it no longer
I stood on my bed and I said,
GOD THIS ISN'T FUNNY AT ALL!
I need your attention, I've been meaning to mention
if you see her up there, tell her I said take care
I miss her and wish her a happy eternity

I can do this, if I get through this
I will send for you
if I can make it, if I can take it
I will send for you

now that my shell's decaying
I hear my heart beat saying
how long can one life take to live
GOD, THIS ISN'T FUNNY AT ALL
I'd sure like to go now, I really don't care how
a car crash, an earth quake, a day job I can't take
I miss her and wish her happy eternity

I can do this, if I get through this
I will send for you, send for you
if I can make it, if I can take it
I will send for you

change of address, apartment's a mess
hiding from heaven, young man going west
change of address, apartment's a mess
hiding from heaven, young man going west
young man going west, young man going west
hiding from heaven, young man going west
change of address, apartment's a mess
hiding from heaven, yeah

I can do this, if I get through this
I will send for you, will send for you
I can do this, if I get through this
I will send for you
if I can make it, if I can take it
I will send for you
will send for you, will send for you
heaven
