Fragmented memories pierce through my skull
Lacerating pain
The black dog has its hold
Catatonic I wait
Please give me an answer
My guilt grows malignant
Just like a cancer
I focus the light
The lens burns my skin
Revealing the pain
That i've held within
You were my best friend a brother and a son
Some days I wish it was me who died young
You are home
Lost inside my head
With the memories of the dead
I'll move on
Lift the stone
This weight that carries on
It's you who keeps me strong
I'll be alright
An ocean of sorrow stirs from within
Waves crash in unison under my skin
This hole in my heart
Forgiveness I need
I don't deserve it
No matter how much I bleed
I couldn't bring myself
To help or to speak
But I guess that I have to
Accept that I'm weak
I want to move on
But I can't stay afloat
Its my guess your family is in the same boat
You are home
Lost inside my head
With the memories of the dead
I'll move on
Lift the stone
This weight that carries on
It's you who keeps me strong
I'll be alright
So many times I've asked myself
What if I could've done something different
Something that would've changed the outcome
Something that would've prevented your demise
Something that would save all of us close to you
Is this some kind of sick game god plays
Does he even give a shit about us
Are we all alone
Never the less what's done is done
And I'll strive to be as kind as you were
There'll be setbacks
I'll make mistake and I'll hurt people
But I will do everything in my power to be there for the ones close to me
Two steps forward
One step back
Two steps forward
One step back
Two steps forward
One step back
