The day before
the day before you died
we held each other and cried
you said we would always be
and you would never leave
i think about that day all the time
you were taken in your prime
i knew you were addicted
i knew you were conflicted
i tried tough love
i tried praying to the god above
nothing worked for long
everything i tried was wrong
when they called to tell me about you
i wouldn't believe it to be true
i drove to the hospital
not wanting it to be possible
i got there and took the elevator down
to the morgue an actual ghost town
tears begging me to let them free
i did, once they let me see
they opened the small door and pulled you out
my fist clenched and chills were felt thru out
they pulled the sheet down to reveal your face
i fell to the floor of that horrendous place
two men helped me up to my feet
then they covered your beautiful face with that sheet
they asked if it was you
i shook my head yes and they pushed you back thru
that day i will never forget
I'm filled with so much regret
i should have done more
i had no idea what was in store
you were my heart and soul
i feel like i helped you lose control
i should have hid those fucking pills
the ones that slowly kill
i shouldn't of given you money
but i loved you, you were my honey
your gone, everything is so strange
there's so many things i wish i could change
cant get you out of my head
cant get out of my bed
i feel like i helped you die
and for that reason i cry
we held each other and cried
you said we would always be
and you would never leave
i think about that day all the time
you were taken in your prime
i knew you were addicted
i knew you were conflicted
i tried tough love
i tried praying to the god above
nothing worked for long
everything i tried was wrong

i wouldn't believe it to be true
