Returning The Smile You Have Had From The Start

You wanted to know if

If it was worth the pain that it has caused us

Both our lives -subtract one life

To know why it was you deserved this

As simple as I can

I'll tell you the difference

Between a pencil and a pen

And where it will leave us now

As your body lets you die

And I sit here still alive

In my memory I wrote you down in ink

I never wanted to erase your story

Even with the tragedy it brings

The fluid in your lungs

That tells you you're losing stop breathing

The medicine that comes will fix you

Will help you but takes you from conscious to sleep

Place my hands to face and weep

In my memory I wrote you down in ink

I never wanted to erase your story

Even with the tragedy it brings

Something beautiful

Something torn from my hands

I'm not ready for you to die

This day will end with a life complete

This day will end with a life complete

My closest friend here in front of me

You wanted to know if

If it was worth the pain that it has caused us

Both our lives -subtract one life

To know why it was you deserved this
