Love You Left Behind

The last few weeks have been a haze

Nothing could prepare us for your last days.

We were told there was nothing they could do

And that cancer would take you.

Denial and acceptance, hand in hand

Life slips through my fingers like grains of sand.

 

Lost hopelessly

Hell's taunting me

 

I pray that dawn will never come

Don't slip away with the rising sun

The night sets in, devoured by fear

Erasing time, to keep you here

Is hope just a fantasy?

I'm petrified by the apathy.

Will I learn to live with grief haunting me?

Lost hopelessly

Hell's taunting me

Hell's taunting me

I pray that dawn will never come

Don't slip away with the rising sun

The night sets in, devoured by fear

Erasing time, to keep you

Lay here, we're all beside you

Stay here, let love guide you

Lay here, we're all beside you

Stay here, let love guide you

As you ascend I'm left to reflect

I'm grateful for the torment in retrospect

I pray that dawn will never come

Don't slip away with the rising sun

The night sets in, devoured by fear

Erasing time, to keep you here

Lay here, we're all beside you

(To keep you here)

Stay here, let love guide you

(To keep you here)

Lay here, we're all beside you

(To keep you here)

Stay here, let love guide you

Lay here, we're all beside you
