Alone

It's taken 12 long years to write about this
Held back by this weight on my chest
It's taken 12 long years to sing about you
Too scared, too consumed

And that day you must have known
3 kids left without a home
Half a lifetime, left behind
Wasted away, we watched you die

We watched you die

Emptiness that can't be quantified
Your life taken in the blink of an eye
Left alone to wander through this life
Never again will I have you by my side

But all the lessons you've taught me won't leave my mind
But every time I replay it you just die

This sickness doesn't discriminate
Body and mind gone without a trace
I couldn't recognize your face
I'll take these memories to my grave

This sickness doesn't discriminate
Body and mind gone without a trace
I couldn't recognize your face
I'll take these memories to my grave

To my grave

Nothing left of that man that I used to know
But still I can't let go
I won't let my heart turn into stone
As I face this world alone

I wander alone without a choice
But I would give anything to hear your voice

And that day you must have known
3 kids left without a home
Half a lifetime, left behind
Wasted away, we watched you die
