The palms where you lay are cold in the morning, and your smells still lingers through the bold lonely air. The sound of your silence was enough to keep me dreaming and my love for those moments will never disappear. Life has a funny way of drawing the finale line. Laughter to whispers tears create the end of time. You were born to me and therefore your mine, without my consent you were taken, leaving me heartless and blind.
(Chorus)
Why take a life that was too young for living? Why take a breath that hasn’t been held? Why take a love that was forever binding? Why take a daughter a son a child.
Verse:
Hypnotized by these subtle things the need for love and the pain it brings. Painting vivid pictures with these gray scaled mixtures, bringing color to the family who love and miss you greatly. And I promised to be strong but I broke it, cause it breaks me I’m well spoken. Living life without you is hard, but life will go on at least for some parts.
(Chorus)
Post Chorus:
Why is the Lord’s plan one of which we cannot understand. Broken bruised and lovely and held in his hands
