[Verse] It was late and the world was still asleep Moonlight whispered promises it couldn’t keep I stumbled through the hallway A parent on call And there you fell My pinky toe The first to take the fall [Prechorus] You met the corner like a soldier brave No time to hesitate No toe to save [Chorus] Rest in peace My little friend The pain was sharp but you met your end A wake for a toe Who’d have guessed it so Farewell My pinky We’ll miss you though [Verse 2] Now I know toes break and they do not bend The grief lingers my stubby friend You carried me through all my days Now you’re a martyr to the nighttime maze [Chorus] Rest in peace My little friend The pain was sharp but you met your end A wake for a toe Who’d have guessed it so Farewell My pinky We’ll miss you though [Bridge] No statues for toes No medals to earn Just the sting of your absence at every turn But I’ll hobble along Though the world feels cold A piece of me gone But your story’s told
