Lyrics : 9:05
It's 9:05
I'm 14 years old and my best friend's mom just died
I know this kind of loss cannot be quantified
Not qualified to make the call but wanna try
The phone is in my hand he's just responded "Hi"
August in '99 I'm home from college I've
Just run a lap as fast as possible to fight
This illness that kills and will not apologize
This time's so quickly and it was his father's I
All of this life, drifting plates tectonic slide
The Fates and Mother Nature commit homicide
Amidst the splits, we rock and shift and modify
It's me at 15 now it's me, it's Jonny 5
Reminiscing of someone else's mom who's died
Shе said our songs inspired her this song inspired
A drеam I had last night that she was still alive
He tells me he has dreams like that all the time
9:05, it's 9:05 and I just had a memory from when I was born, when I...was born
So, goodbyes surrounded by the color and light, the color and light, and where were you, where...were you
Father, when will I forget your grace and
Mother, your laugh escapes me
I chase memories against common sense
Racing for that calming sense you gave when you held me
On those lost summer days and told me I was beautiful, so many ways, your image fades
I smile at the mirror, try to replace my smile
Yet the mirror's not your face, the wake is gone
How long will we remember your light, how long
Before another biopsy makes us break
Til one of us cries at the other one's grave
I love you more than my words can say
I love you so much more than my words can say
Please keep these notes from the empty space
Where one of us goes and fades away
And I just don't know what I'd say
If I could see you now
I just don't know what I'd say
If I could see you, see you now
9:05, it's 9:05 and I just had a memory from when I was born, when I was born
I'm 14 years old and my best friend's mom just died
I know this kind of loss cannot be quantified
Not qualified to make the call but wanna try
The phone is in my hand he's just responded "Hi"
August in '99 I'm home from college I've
Just run a lap as fast as possible to fight
This illness that kills and will not apologize
This time's so quickly and it was his father's I
All of this life, drifting plates tectonic slide
The Fates and Mother Nature commit homicide
Amidst the splits, we rock and shift and modify
It's me at 15 now it's me, it's Jonny 5
Reminiscing of someone else's mom who's died
