[00:00.59]I died in a car crash two days ago
[00:09.93]Was unrecognizable
[00:11.15]When they pulled me from the gears
[00:17.35]No one's fault, no one's bottle
[00:21.12]No one's teenage pride or throttle
[00:24.90]Our innocence is all the worse for fears
[00:29.27]The other walked away alive
[00:32.31]Arms wrapped now around his wife
[00:37.03]My lover sits, the silent eye
[00:40.58]In a hurricane of warmth and word
[00:44.44]My mother trembles with the sobs
[00:47.82]Whose absence seems absurd
[00:51.21]My sister shouts to let her see
[00:54.09]Through the cloud of crowd surrounding me
[00:58.12]My colleagues call for silence in my name
[01:04.58]I died in a car crash three months ago
[01:12.47]They burned me until I glowed
[01:17.51]And crumbled to a fine gray sand
[01:19.95]Now I am nothing, everywhere
[01:23.71]Several breaths of strangers' air
[01:29.38]And all thoughts ever written in my hand
[01:32.20]They plant my tree out in the yard
[01:36.13]It grows but takes the winter hard
[01:40.75]My lover holds a knife to wrist
[01:44.17]Says tomorrow comes, hold on a while
[01:48.73]My mother tosses in the sheets
[01:52.03]And dreams me holding my own child
[01:55.68]My sister plays our homemade tapes
[01:59.75]Laughs as tears run down her face
[02:03.89]My office door now wears a different name
[02:10.32]I died in a car crash four years ago
[02:18.59]My tree drinks melted snow
[02:21.23]Just eight feet tall a pale and fragile thing
[02:25.90]Bee stings beaches bright vacations
[02:30.70]Sunburnt high-school graduations
[02:34.48]A sparrow healing from a broken wing
[02:39.04]This year a glimpse of second chances
[02:43.62]Tiny apples on my tree's branches
[02:49.35]My lover hears the open wind
[02:53.21]And crawls blinking into the sun
[02:57.64]My mother leafs through photographs
[03:01.14]And thinks "yes she was a lovely one"
[03:05.08]My sister can't decide her truth
[03:08.35]Asks aloud what I might do
[03:12.02]In a conference hall my brief efforts engraved
[03:20.09]I died in a car crash
[03:25.53]A lifetime ago it seems
[03:29.40]A decade or two or three
[03:33.84]They've come out with a new design
[03:37.07]Bars and bags front and behind
[03:39.97]My fate now an impossibility
[03:46.28]Safely packaged hurtling down
[03:49.73]The highway hardly make a sound
[03:55.11]My lover very much alive
[03:59.48]Arms wrapped now around his wife
