You say, "Kick the cat and feed the dog."

Let's go walking down the hall.

Don't you ever let me go-

If you do, don't tell me so.

Grab hold of everything. Follow me to our brand new start.

I'm keeping everything. We've all got to play our part.

I kicked the cat and fed the dog

Kept you moving down the hall

Said you'd never let me go-

Though you never told me so.

We're gonna make it-

We're gonna make it, after all

(Don't let me fall)

Taken for everything. So much for a brand new start.

You ruined everything, including me and your own heart.

I kicked your cat and fed your dog

And I'm burning down your hall

I hope you never let me go-

But won't ever tell you so.

I am finally getting old-

Drinking Sherry (growing mold)

This life is not what I was sold

We didn't make it-

We didn't make it, after all

(You made me fall)

I should have held him tighter, kept him closer. I never should have gone to sleep that night. I should have fought my migraine. Now, everything has turned out like the song.

This life is not what I was sold. I ruined everything.

We didn't make it. I made him fall.

Closing my eyes, I will my hearts' message to reach his spirit, wherever it is.

I love you, Jake, and I will continue to love you with every fiber of myself, with every heartbeat, and every inch of my soul for the rest of my life and beyond. I promise I'll never let you fall again.
