Everyone's alive but ill
Let's take deep breaths
And lock the doors so no one
Yeah so no one has to know
I can say I'm doing well
As long as, As long as I can see
The room from the grave yard shift she turns
I was too ashamed yeah I was too ashamed
I was just too weak to save her
But she doesn't care
No! she doesn't care
Please let me take your pain away for one day
Everyone's alive and well
Yea we're doing fine
As long as there's no time to cry
We're healthy, yea we're healthy still
I'm sorry I can't save you from evenings you spent weeping
Behind locked doors where no one has to know
I was too ashamed yeah I was too ashamed
I was just too week to save her
But she doesn't care
No! she doesn't care
Please let me take your pain away for one day
Everybody's doing fine
Yea we can stay healthy as long as there's no time to cry
I was hoping, I was dreaming
That we could someday change
This song is about Kenny's mom. I think it's about she was depressed or something like that. Kenny just really wanted to help her, do anything just to make her feel better. But no matter what he did he felt like he was just too weak, small, or not able to help her.

This song is sooo beautiful, it reminds me of my own mother.
