it plays in my head over and over again
the moment that i realized that you were never coming back
craving the connection that we never had
the stars in your eyes and the hope in your heart are now gone
and everything is wrong
i lost the will that i had to better myself and carry on
now there's nothing left to your name
but a hollow son and a father who died in vain.
i would give anything to have a chance to say goodbye
the thought never leaves my mind
it follows me into my dreams
where you could live forever
until the color leaves my eyes
your memory haunts me as much as it blesses me
but i'll still let my soul fill with your love
because i know one day we will walk together
i'll show my gratitude with every step that i take
and maybe then you'll forgive me
for all the bridges i've burned
and the mistakes i've made
i'm lost, but i was never free
just a slave to fate in a world that never wanted me
too selfish to love
too proud to cry out for help
too afraid to admit that i can't save myself
hearing your voice would make the distance disappear
now all i feel is empty space
i never wanted to push you away
but i can't blame you for wanting to leave
you walked to your god
your steps so nervous and faint
in the end i hope you found what you were looking for
i'm sorry i never knew how to help
i'm sorry i couldn't save you from yourself
i'm sorry for all the things i said that i never meant, that i never felt
i lived to learn and to grow
and i learned to let it show
with every moment that i had left
i gave all i had to give
and i'm still hopeless and alone
it turns out not even love could heal our broken home
no solace, no truth, no peace
the thought of you still tears me apart
but your soul never lost its place in my heart
til death do us part
