Orphan

Expel all these words of shame
All the pain I felt, up in smoke with you
With you

I try to find
Reasons that explain
But it seems none will do
The only reason is
That which begins
Must also end

Expel all these words of pain
All the shame I felt, up in smoke with you
Guilt over intentions never realized
You took this from me, a parting gift

On that day, the two did meet
Each orphans in their own way
We faced your death as we faced life
Side by side, together
In the end. In the end
I hope that you felt safe
An orphan on Webster Ave

I hope you felt safe as you were dying in my arms

We're here, we're not. And so it continues
We're here, we're not. Blessed to continue
We're here, we're not. Doomed to continue
It's all so fucking brief

You were there for me
And I hope I showed you the same
Two orphans, the same

An orphan
Old friend
It's like you never left my side
