Baby You Got Lucky

Dear baby,

 

You passed away before you could make mistakes

You passed away before any heartbreaks

You passed away before breaking a bone

You passed away before you could feel alone

 

Maybe you got lucky

 

Up there in Heaven, you can watch me burn

Up there in Heaven you can watch me learn

That the most beautiful thing I’ve met was spared

From the harms of a world that does not seem to care

 

Baby you got lucky.
