about

For my sister and best friend, life is so much brighter with you in it. Dedicated to Nathaniel James Booker and Curtis Duquette. Your friends and family will always miss you.

lyrics

I remember the times
We used to stay up at night
Not a care in the world
The future looked so bright

Growing older's not an easy thing to do
But I'd be alright
Because I'd do it with you

But how could I know
About the secrets you keep
Hiding all that darkness
In your heart so deep

If you gave me a chance
I would've held your hand
We could face it together
I would understand

Sometimes life's not what we expect to be
But you didn't have to give it up and leave

If you gave me time
I could have known
I'd have stood by your side
We would have held our own

I'd have stood by your side
You didn't have to go

Now that you've said goodbye
I have to stand alone

As I pick up the pieces
Of my broken life
I can't fit them together
I can't make it right

All my memories are fading to the past
But I can't let go
And face the aftermath

And though I tried
To shed the blame
It doesn't matter if I feel the pain

And as my walls
Come crumbling down
It's hard to rebuild
When you're not around

Sometimes life's not what we expect to be
But you didn't have to give it up and leave

If you gave me time
I could have known
I'd have stood by your side
We would have held our own

I'd have stood by your side
You didn't have to go

Now that you've said goodbye
I have to stand alone

Alone
