Hayley

Not the same no more
I'm not a kid no more
No more help knocking at my door
Sometimes it feels like what for

Sometimes I miss it but I know I could never go back
27 years around the sun 3 months flat
I used to swing in trees not afraid of scraped knees
Sometimes I miss it but I could never go back

We had issues never took the time to address
Mom and dad fought a lot but they did their best
Can't help remember crying against the playhouse walls
Telling baby brother this isn't love all

Then Hayley died
Took us all by surprise
Childhood flashed before my eyes
People up filled the church and for the first time ever
Our differences didn't matter

Not the same no more
I'm not a kid no more
No more help knocking at my door
Sometimes it feels like what for

Sometimes I can't forgive myself, mistakes that I've made
If I was somehow that person how'd I get here today
I guess nobody but me will ever really see
The internal fights, the up all nights, crippling anxiety

Would I change it if I could
Don't know that I should
Every heart ache that I've claimed, every pain that I ached
Somehow led me to being more human today

Then Hayley died
Didn't get to say goodbye
I hear her singing inside my mind
That's what I chose to remember
That's what I remember

Not the same no more
I'm not a kid no more
