Knowing you were there
Made me want to be there too
Listening to you
Made everything clear for me
How can we go on
Pretending everything remains the same
When we know we're not guided by you
Although we wish we were?
The death of someone who is alive
Hurts more than the physical death
Knowing that it didn't have to be like this
Makes it hurt more to know
That there's nothing we can do
Nothing can replace
The bond a friendship creates
No nice words, no smiles
Can replace your scoldings
Your severe words
Are sweeter to me than all the "it's oks"
Tears roll down in my face
As I think about your impact
Your presence has left a trace
Of you in the hearts of all your
Sisters, brothers,
Sons and daughters
I know you are there
But at the same time you aren't
Your heart aches
As ours do too
But there's nothing we can do
We are all fading out
Since they took away your light
We're groping through darkness now
Since your candle isn't by our side
You're lit somewhere else
I just wanna say
That after all we've been through
I'd never change one second
And I just hope you'll always be
This person we made you
Because we will always be
These people you turned us into
Love, your sisters, brothers,
sons and daughters
