Silent we grew And so silent we were

I remember when I thanked God for you with every amen So long ago it seems when you loved me back then

Is it sad that I’m used to this now That I almost search for it

She’s like the wind The way she comes and she goes

Sometimes I wonder what I did to deserve this Like I know I played my part

remember when you’d rest your head on my chest Your arm around me fast asleep

It’s always the last time They see the marks, kiss your bruises

You were like the first snowfall of winter You fell from the sky like a snowflake

I remember the day we laid outside in the grass It was the first day the sun had come out in days

I watched you die. As you took your last breath, I stood there and I cried
