"Life And Death" lyrics

Oh, the difference between life and death
It's a smile to a frown
It's the whole world let you down
They say I was crying at birth
Guess I'm still the saddest boy on earth

Oh, the difference between life and death
Simple "Hello" and "Oh God, I didn't know"
Bad things happen to folks like you
Guess I always noticed your attitude

Oh, the difference between life and death
It's a falling pistol shell
While I'm holding your head still
Never seen your eyes wide like that
Guess I always thought that you'd come back

Oh, the difference between life and death
Oh, it's digging a grave and filling her in
Guess I never thought she'd go so soon
I'll drink it over every afternoon

Oh, the difference between life and death
Oh, it's holding you close and remembering how you felt
Don't know when I'll get over you
Guess when I find my own grave too
