lyrics

I heard calls from my mother, fearing I'd wandered too far
We always press for another, when we forget where our hearts belong
You're never gone...
And now it's twenty years after. Only now I truly know
what it means to withstand her passing into the dust
As if the world could afford to lose anyone, anything good
I won't close the book things never end as they should
I think of wasted time, of gratitude i never gave
I think of all those years I spent chasing a dream
fueled by your praise
I couldn't speak my mind, it's like my words could not relate
Now in that silent room where misery takes up its shelter
a man lays his hand on my shoulder and tells me, I'm sorry for your loss.
And I hate this chapter, the pages are bloody
the words make no sense to me.
And the confusion I feel, you're not here to console
I'm completely unresolved.
And though you're not here, you never end
I will not turn this page I swear
For what the years have taken, I will find again.
