Curses and pounding fists
I quickly woke up to this
I learned what had happened
What you had done to yourself
I sat, and I shook, and I cried
I prayed for this to be a lie
Or some sick, stupid joke
But I knew you really died
I knew that you were gone
That I’d never get to say goodbye
But I couldn't just accept that
Not then, now, or ever
You were my family
You will be forever
I quickly woke up to this
I learned what had happened
What you had done to yourself
I sat, and I shook, and I cried
I prayed for this to be a lie
Or some sick, stupid joke
But I knew you really died
I knew that you were gone
That I’d never get to say goodbye
But I couldn't just accept that
Not then, now, or ever
You were my family
You will be forever
