PEREGRINE:
[Verse 1]
He was a serious-type person
All the time, talked like an adult
And when he started dating
He'd, like, ask me my opinions?
I'd say "try not to be so dull"
Was always hockey and his pick-up
Had his license, that was pretty cool
He'd drive his friends to games
And drive us both to school
He was good to talk to on the road
[Pre-Chorus]
Freshman year was really sort of tough for me
So he'd go into older brother mode
[Chorus]
"When something happens
Come and find me
Come and find me
I'll help get you through"
"If you're in trouble,"
He'd remind me
"You come and find me
I'll know what to do"
"Come and find me
I'm looking out for you"
[Verse 2]
I think dad leaving hit him harder
He was ten, I was only eight
And neither of us knew it, but like
They were having problems
And then one night he moved away
And for the rest of that semester
Maybe longer, Jacob didn't speak
Like, he was quiet before
But this got really bleak
At the time, I didn't quite know why
[Pre-Chorus]
Then one day I'm downstairs with the TV on
And he sits on the couch and starts to cry
[Chorus]
"When something happens
Come and find me
Come and find me
I'll help get you through"
"If someone hurts you,"
He'd remind me
"You come and find me
I'll know what to do"
"Come and find me
I'm always there for you"
[Bridge]
I never though that this could happen to someone like Jacob
He was smart, he was careful and he never got that scared
The fact that this could happen to someone like Jacob
Means none of us can ever be too prepared
[Verse 3]
I'll prob'ly always think about it
What if, like... What could I have done?
Mom keeps saying "Nothing,"
That these accidents just happen
But that's not enough!
If Jacob knew about surviving
Or else camping, or even hunting deer
If Dad had done his job
Maybe Jacob would be here
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I think of that it makes me mad
'Cause now I have to wrestle with this fear
[Chorus]
When something happens
Who will find me?
Who will find me
If I'm somewhere left for dead?
If Jacob's not there to remind me
"Come and find me"
What is there instead?
"Come and find me,"
Ringing in my head
