Lyrics:

Shut your eyes

And find solace in a lack of conciousness
Forget your pain
Forget your days
Forget the cancer that's been seeping through your veins

Hold my heart, I'll hold your name
Though I'll never wear it the same
Cause I am weak while you are brave
Brave from birth, until the grave

In a hospital bed
I saw your empty shell
And there's nothing I could do
But sit and wish you well

I don't know if you're still in there
Or if there's nothing left
But I'll still stay awake at night
Until you find rest

I know your light is fading
But I just don't have the heart
To watch the sunset with you
To watch you lose your spark

I know that you've been suffering
Even if you're not aware
And I just want you to find comfort
Even when I can't be there

Promise me that even as your fire burns out
I'll always feel your warmth
And I promise to think of you on every hard night
And every roaring storm

I'll always hold a piece of you
Where my name and my blood meet
And if I can't see you every fucking day
Then I'll see you in my sleep

I wish that I was stronger
I wish that I could be like you
I wish that you'd stay longer
And watch your legacy bloom

And maybe I'm just selfish
To want to keep you from the earth
But I know I need to let you go
Even if it hurts

Goodbye
Sleep well you, gentle soul
And know that I'll look up to you
Even when I'm grey and old

Just know that every word I ever sing
Is sung with you in mind
And that your memory won't fade away
No matter the passage of time
