Lyrics
[Verse 1] I'm the keeper of the bees, as you've known Just a worthless memory in this house Through the light of day and dark, will you notice me? I'm the keeper of the bees; I'm a dead man

[Chorus] Dear Diary, I won't keep her awake anymore

[Verse 2] I won't love her anymore, she won't let me Just a journeyman's journey to the end Will this road hold home for good, will I ever see? Against this broken street I'll gain, it will comfort me

[Chorus] Dear Diary, I won't keep her awake anymore

This song is about a completely different character who doesn't seem to have a connection with any other we currently know about. Wayne Andrews, the former Bee Keeper in Margretville, haunts his wife, and in doing so causes her much grief. Finally, he decides to move on, since he can see he's only hurting her.
