the love you let too close

this isn't just another sunset

finality hangs low in the air. the last page of a story all too short

you can see there was a battle here. substance and a pain eternal

infidelity so infernal. a friend

lover

song and a brother

taken too early by his own hand. the poison lays on the table

note with a final goodbye within arms reach. if only we could see it in your eyes

so unstable. if only you could've shared the pain with me. if only. you couldn't bury the pain

i couldn't save you. you couldn't bury the pain

instead it buried you. you couldn't bury the pain

i couldn't save you. you couldn't bury it all. now i just go through the motions. watching it all just fade away. now i just go through the motions. taking it all day by day. now i just go through the motions. wishing that i could've noticed. now i just go through the motions. march 26th

the day you left us. broken by the love you let too close

i couldn't see. the pain in your heart

now it lives in your mothers eyes. and now you're gone and it's killing me. you couldn't bury the pain

i couldn't save you. you couldn't bury the pain

instead it buried you. you couldn't bury the pain

i couldn't save you. you couldn't bury it all. now i just go through the motions. watching it all just fade away. now i just go through the motions. taking it all day by day. now i just go through the motions.
