lyrics

It's been many years since that night in your car
Outside your house and that talk we talked
You spoke of the evils in your stepdad's safe
And how you could use them to map your escape

You looked at me
And with tears streaming down your cheeks
You said to me
That in death you'd find some peace
I disagreed
So I took your hand in mine
Just so you'd know
That I'd never leave your side

I meant what I said, or I did at the time
The months, they grew colder, well so did I
You tried to be strong for me like I was for you
Our demons were stronger than we ever knew

I looked at you
And with tears streaming down my cheeks
I said to you
That without you I'd find peace
You walked away
Just like you should have done
Into his arms
And he'd show you what love was

It's been many years since I last saw your face
Inside that restaurant and almost engaged
No one can prepare for the trials that come
Clutch to your strength and just hope it's enough

About my age
Riddled with cancer of the brain
Things aren't the same
And there's nothing I could say
Except I hope he wins
This God-forsaken war
And you will remain
Fulfilled forevermore

Forever
