Luyện nghe bài hát Carissa

Oh Carissa, when I first saw you, you were a lovely
And the last time I saw you, you were fifteen and pregnant and running
I remember wondering, could there be a light at the end of your
But I left Ohio and had pretty much forgotten all about you
I guess you were some years ago at a family funeral
But you were one of so many relatives I know which one was you

Yesterday morning I woke up to so many 330 area calls
I called my mom back and she was in tears and had I spoke to my father?
Carissa burned to death last night in a freak fire
In her in Brewster her daughter came home from a party and found her
Same way as my uncle, who was her
An aerosol can blew up in the trash, goddamn, what the odds?

She was getting ready to go to her midnight shift as an RN in Wadsworth
And she vanished up in flames like that but there had to be to her life's worth
Everyone's out of their minds, making arrangements and taking drugs
But I'm flying out there tomorrow because I need to and get some hugs
Cause I got questions I'd like to get answered
I may never get them, but Carissa, I've got to how did it happen?

Carissa was thirty-five, you don't just raise two and take out your trash and die
She was my second cousin, I didn't know her well at all but it don't mean that I
Now to find poetry, to make some sense of this, to find a deeper meaning
In this senseless tragedy, O Carissa, sing your name across every sea

Were you doing else's chores for them?
Were you killing time, finding things to do all by your lonesome?
Was it even you who mistakenly put flammables in the
Was it your kids just being If so, the guilt they will carry around forever
Well I'm going out there to get a look at the
To get a look at I'm connected by blood and see how it all may have shaped me
Well I'm going out there though I'm not needed
I'm just so broken up about it, how is it this sad history repeated?
return to Ohio, to the place I was spawned
Going to see where I hung with my cousins and played with them in the and fished in their pond
Going to see how they've grown, some graves and say, "Hey, I've missed you"
Going to find out as much as I can about my little second Carissa

Gonna go to Ohio, I was born
Got a AM flight, I'm leaving tomorrow morn
Going to see my aunts and uncles, my parents and
Mostly I'm going to pay my respects to my little second cousin

Going to Ohio, where I feel I
Ask those who know the about Carissa
For it is her life and death that I am drawn

Carissa was thirty-five, raised kids since she was fifteen years old and suddenly
to an old river, fire pit, oh there's gotta be more than that to it
She was only my second cousin but it don't mean that I'm not here for her or that I
to give her life poetry, or to make sure her name is known across every city
