Lyrics
i read about the bear in your backyard
i read about his eyes and the fear in’em
i read about the fear in you
or was it passion?

did you save the tree?
did you mow the lawn?
did the blood dry up?
or did you leave before you could see

did Allison find a job in Chicago?
did you repaint the white window stills
or did the flowers bloom again?

ask Jenkins if the bears are still coming ‘round
or are they too scared to dare
as some of the stray bullets were meant for you

look at the claw marks
they were written for you
you alone could see the last writing of the bear
