Song Description

the day to day struggle of the untimely loss of a loved one

Lyrics

why do they ask
why can?t they see
not enough time has gone by and I'm still not me
they don?t understand
the burden I bear
why were you taken so soon it's just not fair
do they know
does it show
is it written all over my face
I just want to get through this with a little grace

so I break down
when I know there's no one around
turn down the lights sit in the dark
pray to god to please make this pain stop
then I'll be strong
do my best to try to move on
from an ordinary day when everything changed

the doctors have said
the counselors have spoke
but they're not the ones who've lost faith in everything they know
is all of this real
is it just a bad dream
will I wake up in bed turn my head and see you next to me
everyday
I find ways
to get back to regular life
but sometimes I give up the fight

and I break down
when I know there's no one around
turn down the lights sit in the dark
pray to god to please make this pain stop
then I'll be strong
do my best to try to move on
but I'm still re-living that day when everything changed

I can hear the sound of your voice smell the scent of your clothes
everybody listens but nobody knows
time can heal wounds but the past will leave scars
oh my god can you hear me I'm crying out loud

CHORUS

so many things that I wish I could say on that ordinary day
when everything changed
