Don't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna hear about it
Don't wanna think about it
I wanna shrug it off
I wanna make light of it
Let it fall between the cracks
I wanna laugh about it
when years have passed
Saw a black dog painting
by the house tonight
red tongue lolling
eyes all white
I can't turn a corner
just can't let my guard down
Can't even close my eyes
without it being thereDon't wanna talk about it
Don't wanna hear about it
Don't wanna think about it
I wanna shrug it off
And I know deep down that
I haven't changed at all
but I'm slowly getting better
at covering up
Underneath a flimsy pavement
We buried, smiling, a raging bog
We were cocky, young and callous
I guess we had nothing else to do
And all the while it lay in waiting
and took on the form of a charcoal dog
