Lyrics
Peregrine:

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

Freshman year was really sort of tough for me

So he’d go into “older-brother mode”

“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,

“Come and find me, I’ll know what to do.”

“Come and find me, I’m looking out for you.”

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

Then one day I’m downstairs with the tv on,

And he sits on the couch and starts to cry

“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”

I never thought 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

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, even hunting deer

If dad had done his job maybe Jacob would be here

Every time I think of that it makes me mad

‘cuz now I have to wrestle with this fear

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.
