Mourning Song |
| I was thinking of leaving |
| With the world placed firmly at my feet |
| Nothing left to gain |
| Nothing left to give you |
| If I could simply stop breathing |
| Maybe then the ache would go away |
| Nowhere left to run |
| Nothing left to run from |
| When you looked me in the eyes |
| How could I have known that that would be your final goodbye? |
| How is it fair I must live this life |
| Without your infinite light and guidance? |
| How is it fair you had no choice of when you left? |
| And now we all live in the shadow of it |
| In your slumber, you’ve shown me |
| All the little things that you’re deprived |
| Of every single thing that I took for granted |
| Now, I sit here in mourning |
| Knowing that you left while you were lost |
| And now I’m petrified |
| Of leaving before I belonged |
| My entire life is shrouded now |
| That death’s black wing eclipsed your sunshine |
| And if I have to live for you |
| In spite of all |
| The pain that I might feel that I go through |
| That’s something that I swear to do |
| How is it fair I must live this life |
| Without your infinite light and guidance? |
| How is it fair you had no choice of when you left? |
| And now we all live in the shadow of it |
| There is beauty in any loss that teaches you a lesson |
| All the beautiful friends we leave behind without ever forgetting |
| Though life will move without you, I will never move along |
| If this is my last chance to sing you to sleep |
| There is beauty in any loss that teaches you a lesson |
| All the beautiful friends we leave behind without ever forgetting |
| Though life will move without you, I will never move along |
| If this is my last chance to sing you to sleep |
| Then let this be my mourning song |
