Day 42: Tribute
They told me chin up, hold you head up high
I respond with a question, “tell me why?”
Tell me how life is so great,
This wasn’t supposed to be part of my fate
I didn’t ever think that I would have to start again
But here we are talking about it
Don’t ask me how am I feeling about it
Because I don’t know where the road leads
The pain of the wounds inside still bleeds
Like it was yesterday that it all happened
I miss him, knowing I won’t get to hear his voice
Apart from listening to old stuff that people said was just noise
It was so much more to me
It spoke to me, knew how I felt
So tell me now, how to get out of this hell
Because I don’t know
I thought I was okay
I thought I had dealt with it
It comes flooding back
In waves of painful memories
I try to remember the good things he did
How he helped me through my pain
But it comes flooding back
In waves of painful memories
I started to listen to some of the tracks and I was alright
But then one song comes on and the tears I try to fight
But the emotions is too great, it takes over
I’m crying, I can’t stop it, I wished it would just passover
People ask me why am i crying
About someone I didn’t actually know dying
But they don’t get it, the connection he made
All the live shows I went to that he played
Was like, “wow man, this is so awesome”
When I saw him play live for the first time years ago in autumn
I never got the chance to meet him just to say thank you
You helped me understand the pain that I went through
He always said that they had the best fans
And I say to my friends that he was in the best bands
His legacy will always live inside of all of us
Because in some way he touched all our hearts
I thought I was okay
I thought I had dealt with it
It comes flooding back
In waves of painful memories
I try to remember the good things he did
How he helped me through my pain
But it comes flooding back
In waves of painful memories
(Instrumental)
I thought I was okay
I thought I had dealt with it
It comes flooding back
In waves of painful memories
I try to remember the good things he did
How he helped me through my pain
But it comes flooding back
In waves of painful memories
