Luyện nghe bài hát Carissa

Oh Carissa, when I first saw you, you a lovely child
And the last time I saw you, you fifteen and pregnant and running wild
I remember wondering, could be a light at the end of your tunnel?
But I left then and had pretty much forgotten all about you
I guess you were there some years ago at a funeral
But you were one of so many relatives I didn't 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 asked had I to my father?
Carissa burned to death last night in a accident fire
In her yard in Brewster her came home from a party and found her
way as my uncle, who was her grandfather
An aerosol can blew up in the trash, goddamn, what were the

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

was thirty-five, you don't just raise two kids 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 I wasn't
Now to find some poetry, to make some sense of this, to a deeper meaning
In this senseless tragedy, O Carissa, I'll sing your name across sea

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

Gonna go to Ohio, I was born
Got a 10:45 AM flight, I'm leaving morn
Going to see my and uncles, my parents and sisters
Mostly I'm going to pay my respects to my second cousin Carissa

to Ohio, where I feel I belong
Ask those who know the most about
For it is her life and death I am helplessly drawn

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