lyrics

The thoughts, I weave, play host to the course of tragedy,
And all my dreams, are plagued by yearning to be redeemed
The steps we’ve taken, to etch our mark into the walls of time
Will not suffice for my shattered nerves and these weary eyes

Your spirit walks with me.
I’ve never thought that you’d leave us so soon,
These haunting thoughts can chain us in their prison.
Bring me clarity.
I’ve bled enough to empty these wounds.
Once again, I must mend, so let my mind descend

Broken hope,
I couldn’t seem to open up,
There was just so much, I left hidden
I hope you never thought that slipping away would ease our pain
I gave it all to give you up

Not everything pans out just the way it should,
We’re left questioning, did we do everything that we could?
Sometimes, these moments captivate my mind,
Before you open up that door, remember what you’ll leave behind.

So many chapters left unwritten,
A shadow left in the lives of those you loved.

I couldn’t seem to open up,
There was just so much, I left hidden
I hope you never thought that slipping away would ease our pain.
I gave it all to give you up

The weight of all of this comes crashing down
We find ourselves, praying, longing hoping, searching for
an answer.
Just a reason why you’re gone.

I won’t forget,
Your father falling to his knees,
And your brother breaking
As he walked between the rows of seats

I couldn’t seem to open up,
There was just so much, I left hidden,
I hope you never thought that slipping away would ease our pain.
I gave it all to give you up.
