In Motion - Hank to Hailey

You didn't want any pity
It's just in me
To search for
Seek and soak in empathy
Your heart in between shoulders too broad
And a flat no sized chest
You wanted to trade your tees and those loose cut jeans
For shirt skirts and one day a wedding dress

Because you had a dream girl you did yes sir
You wanted to look just like her

Your funeral was the first time I heard your name
And I swear you were beautiful
I never got to say that how you felt was okay
I just pray you made it home safe
If it was all too much now you're free to go your own way

I tried to place myself in your shoes
It was impossible
When the ones you wore you never found close to comfortable
And God bought you the wrong vessel
The torment was unbearable
When it caught all the way up to you
Not the looks and the words
That at best sneered and said unacceptable
Is when you knew that your end without change
Would be inevitable

Because you had a dream girl you did yes sir
You wanted to look just like her

Your funeral was the first time I heard your name
And I swear you were beautiful
I never got to say that how you felt was okay
I just pray you made it home safe
If it was all too much now you're free to go your own way

You were your dreamed upon girl
In your casket I swear it
I had them shadow and line around your green eyes
And some days I too
Want to look just like you
I do I do
And it's nothing short of tragic
But the twenty two years of hurt
You've escaped it
Beautiful girl beautiful girl
Congratulations
