Young boy grows up in South Carolina-
Raised on ain't no point, this worlds got nothing for ya
He goes missing every Blue Moon for about an hour -
Comes back home to an empty house full of silence that grows louder and louder and louder-
Deep at night depression creeps through his window- and he re-reads and re writes the letter that he wrote
Back and forth voices tell him secrets- do not, do not, do not, - yes do- please don't tell momma death is coming for you
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Young boy goes to sleep and wakes up a man -
Blue Moon comes back around, but he don't turn back to take his Mothers Hand
Momma's crying- she's crying out blood- slowly dying, she's calling out, she's calling out.
Momma's crying- she's crying out blood- slowly dying- she's calling out , she keeps calling out-
I'm singing
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
The Sun is setting-Blue Moon is rising- the Stars are lightened- his Heart is pounding- He can feel It in his feet- and He can feel It in his throat- He can feel It in his hands, as he walks up to the edge- he doesn't fear Death anymore- the Sea upon the shore- one hundred feet above the shore - he drops the letter that he wrote
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
Mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
