Hemlock Smith Everyone I Love lyrics

1.
Shuffled feet on broken grass
Amidst the turmoiled ground, I pass
These lumps of earth, where people sleep
And muffled voices, saying let's not weep
Let's not cry
Or at least
Not before this song has died
Our breath expired…

CH 1
Why does everyone I love go away ?
Why does everyone I love go away ?
Why do people face the weather and others fade to grey ?
Why does everyone I love go away ?

2.
Heinous looks and silent meals
Comparing wounds that never heal
And we believed love conquers all
But there's your suitcase in the hall, that's all
Oh if you leave
Oh baby please
Don't leave me here all nullified
Our love, denied – (my pain… ?)


CH 2
Why does everyone I love go away ?
Why does everyone I love go away ?
Why do people stay together and others go astray ?
Why does everyone I love go away ?

3.
Caught my reflection in a glass
An absent mind, a distant past
I wouldn't notice dreams fulfilled
A liquid hides this future spilled
But let's not bleed
It is implied
Along the way my hopes have died
My soul – grew tired

CH 3
Why does everyone I love go away ?
Why does everyone I love go away ?
How come I've fought the better and let the worse fuel my decay ?
Why does everyone I love go away ?

(Repeat CH 1)
