After 5 years of fighting this
One autumn took on more meaning for us
Psalm 23 below the stairs
Around old photos, but your face will disappear
Earnest prayers and heartfelt tears
On the field that night. They graced our ears
Your waves through the passenger window
Meant more than a simple goodbye

Winter comes, winter goes
We hold composure like weeping willows
Your empty lungs and quiet heart
Finally bring you peace but tear our hearts apart
"What I'd give to live our last 10 years again
I promised you I would do it so much different."
These are the serious strums of a sad song

As the sun sets, the silhouettes simplify the scene
I call it inconsistency
And oh God, give us a sunrise
Let midnight turn to morning
And let me see clearly why you would let this happen to
A family

We laugh cause it hurts too much to cry
You live in memory of him
Carry on kid!
And just like him live for what lasts
To become the man he saw you to be
