Hold your goodbyes, we made you brave
Took our whole lives to rid the cradle, to this day
So apt to gain from the choices we made
After all no comfort found,
Proof from the tears that still surround your letter
I would give it all to you
It’s needless to say I’d be there
I would give it all to you
Part of me dies, but I’ll still hang on
Cause we held you.
With every hour you found the truth
Culled from notes, the samples of remembered youth
Right till the moment on the doorstep, we tried.
Twenty years still in the womb,
Rest of our time becoming soon, forever.
Inside this room, we laughed insane
Reenacting the wonders.
Made up to redeem my failures
Found answers from the inside
But I’ve hit the wall this time
I beg of you, be my friend.
