A War We Couldn't Win

Veins would stutter through your hands
Holding on to someday plans
We played all your favorite songs
When those plans turned out all wrong

Blood runs thick in losing fists
It was a war we couldn't win
Lights grow dim in cancer wings
But I don't need light to sing
If there's a chance you're listening

I'll sing
Your song
I'll be strong
Sing when the light's out
When it's quiet
And you're gone

Saw your leaves turn gold and fall
I'm still singing all your songs
Songs you left me, songs that stayed
You were singing the other day

Sing
Your song
I'll be strong
Sing with the lights out
And it's dark and
You're gone

Blood runs thick in desperate limbs
It was a war we couldn't win
Light grows dim in cancer wings
But I don't need light to sing
There's a chance you're listening
