I got the letter you left under my door
Knocked me on my ass to the floor
Never knew two words could take such a bite
It said, Dear Jon, Hello. Goodbye.


I saw your car parked outside Motel Cascade
Saw two shadows go to town on the shade
I can t believe my own lyin eyes, oh my
It better be your girlfriend I saw going down some other guy

You told me you loved me, til death do us part
So tell me there s a tombstone where there used to be a heart

Chorus:

You said you couldn t live without me
So why aren t you dead?
Instead of six feet under you re in someone else s bed
There s just one thing that I can t get through my head
You said you couldn t live without me so why aren t you dead?

I cut your face out of our old photographs
And all the junk you left behind s in the trash
Well, I hoped you were a goner for sure
Well, there s been a resurrection, yeah, a miracle cure

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
If you can t trust the livin baby who can you trust?

Chorus:

You said you couldn t live without me
So why aren t you dead?
Instead of six feet under you re in someone else s bed
There s just one thing that I can t get through my head
You said you couldn t live without me so why aren t you dead?

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
If you can t trust the livin baby who can you trust?

You said you couldn t live without me
So why aren t you dead?
Instead of six feet under you re in someone else s bed
There s just one thing that I can t get through my head
You said you couldn t live without me so why aren t you dead?

You said you couldn t live with out me, what a surprise!
Instead of laying you out I m laying down on the line
You spend my hard-earned money, you left me in the red
You said you couldn t live without me . so why aren t you dead?

Why aren't you dead?

Why aren't you dead?
