christa couture – the next bed كلمات اغاني

in the summer she was a runner, she was fast
but now she’s walking on her hands
from the bathroom back to her bed
where her mind is willing living but her body is willing dead
yup, she’s throwing up blood and bile every half hour
slipping into sleep in between
her hair is wet with sweat the air is scared and sour
she’s twelve but she won’t see thirteen

and in the next bed another bald head soon will wake
to find a frankenstein body in her once perfect body’s place
try to find a reason for this, try to find a reason

down the hall another screaming call
some kid for his mom ‘because he’s scared
yes he woke up alone went to reach for the phone
but he couldn’t ‘because his arm’s not there
and she closes her eyes to the sound as he dies
but she was told to be a brave girl
she thinks a brave girl never cries

in the next bed another bald head soon will wake
to find that in the night another one was taken away
try to find a reason

welcome home – “yes it’s like home” she says five years later
it’s almost comforting how familiar the sterile walls and halls are
not to mention the men in white coats
who bookend their bad news with bad jokes
they say “you’ve done pretty well kid at least better than most did”
and it’s true so she feels endlessly grateful
but sometimes her survival seems shameful
‘cause she tries to find a reason, don’t try to find a reason
