Living a life that doesn't belong to me
Writing these songs and living out your dreams
Can you tell me is it peaceful where you are
Do you get the chance to finish what your start

And your brother fell asleep in the church
And your sister well she wrote down some words

When all you ever wanted was someone to hold you
And all you ever needed was someone to love you
Well I did yes I did
And he did
We both did

I know they say that life isn't fair
Well that's okay this is all our cross to bear
You'd lay awake at night with those sweats
Are you still awake haunting my regrets
You should rest

And your mother chose your outfit
And your father chose your casket

When all you ever wanted was someone to hold you
And all you ever needed was someone to love you
Well she did she did
And he did
They both did

Black looks good on this family
And we're no different everyone leaves

I'll carry your memory with me on my back
Every time these strings and fingers crack
The same way your friends carried you on theirs
Struggling and stumbling pass those tearful stares

And you finally got them to hold you
It's a damn shame it was a little too late
And we all we all loved you
It's a damn shame we didn't know our fate
