Summary:
death, grief, son

find your way among the stars my son
your sweet voice still lingers
Ma don't be sad...

wept tears and those I keep
only God sees
verses pent up with the ocean I need to release

feeling deeply despite my numbing agent
it feels like breathing
sobriety feels like asphyxiation
fake it until you make it class

where is our miracle?

my faith is tested I really believed it wasn't too late
your death is chasing me
a beautiful light blinks out too soon
and I blame myself

we never did learn my son how to deal with life
admittedly I still haven't
looking back big tears roll down my face

you were such a happy baby
sucidal with emotions overwhelming me at seventeen
you understood, I never told you I felt the same way in my life

when you wanted to take your own life
my soul begged you to stay
you just wanted to fly

your demons, our demons at our heals
if this is a lesson it's severe
you didn't deserve that kind of ending
I'm breaking but I will keep moving forward
your brothers and sisters need me

I will keep marching forward
time will recognize or it won't how hard we fought
to end our addictions and let go of hurt

hush my angel please don't watch me fade
my flame is flickering
and I'm not sure I'm coming back from this
