Back when we were still kids   I would never have thought   That we'd end up in this situation   How could the days   Where we just played   Turn into tears of shame so hot   That you would run   Before we've begun    To see   What the world outside    Offers you and I   Now we'll never find out   I wish we had      I’m not sure what we did   To make you run away   But I’m sure it was something awful   Cause    You always smiled   Despite all the cruel   Things that this world's given you   I’m shamed   It took your death   To comprehend   Your intents to please us all   Weren’t because you wanted   To be the one praised   You only gave      Every song that you've sung   Is a special lesson   I will never forget   That my life's in your debt   Every droplet of blood   Every eyelid that floods   Will be you living on   One day they will listen to      Every word that you've said   As they climb into bed   With the night in the sky   You’ll whisper lullabies   Into their restless ears   And they'll shed with their tears   All the day's pain away   Your dreams will someday come true
