I remember eating lunch Watching my mom paint the walls in our kitchen And my dad telling me to stop crying 'Cause there's none in baseball Catching ghosts, scaring my sister every time She left her room Wish I was a kid again Learning how to play pretend Because things in life seem so much easier When you don't know how they work Protected by the ones you love That later make you hurt Laughing at yourself when there is no one to laugh with You Opening doors for some strangers the way I was taught to 'Cause in life, it's just things that you do Monotony and routine are the best ways to make a living Growing up is forgetting new friends Why can't I breathe? Why's life so cheap? Now I can't sleep Because my friend is six feet deep I remembered your name Only a week after we'd hung out And my parents told me I'd never see you again You were with Jesus and I wasn't allowed to your funeral I guess it all works out in the end You made me realize how this life works Pain and separation Tearing at us since birth I got to see one more day than you And I wonder if God had to choose? If he had to chose between me and you
