I visited your grave today
Pushed my way through the fence and headed for the back of the plot
Dead petals and plastic well wishes under my feet as I head to your resting place
Please don't ask me how I'm coping
Because the truth is I'm not
And I just don't want you to worry
I'll find a way to...
So ask me how I'm coping, and I'll smile and tell you, "I'm just fine"
While down inside, I'm drowning in the fucking rain
Because when everything is empty and your heart is set to cave
Sometimes all you wish for is a place, is a place to place the blame
Burn your heaven, flood your hell
Drown...
"I always saw the light in you and a smile on your face
Full of passion, full of purpose, ready to take your place
I guess we'll never understand why you chose to say goodbye
But when a future is as bright as yours, we are left to wonder why"
12 years today. I miss you so much.
I walk in the room, and I can't conceive it
The hospital bed, you're fighting to breathe in
I'm holding your hand but it's losing color
I know you weren't ready to go
Where you are now, God only knows
I guess Heaven really needed you
To leave us in that vacant room
A different you that's doing...
