My Cross To Bear - Bane

Nothing can ever be said

To make sense of the exit that you made

Or this sadness forced on our lap

Left us struck with these haunting questions

Where are all the beautiful answers

Where is the button to push that takes it all back

I should have been there

Crossed burning bridges to meet you

Where was I when you ran out of walls to punch

And I know that you wouldn’t want us to blame ourselves

Or anything but the world

And that your actions well they were never tender

But still nothing prevails like the emptiness

Of a world forever without you

I can still see the way that your teeth showed

When you smiled

Hear the sound of your guitar

I think of the things that should have given

You the strength to go on

The horror of our last words

Still ringing in my ears

Anything we would’ve done

Anything to keep you around

Sometimes you just can’t keep

The madness at bay alone

We have all been there before

No one makes it here alone
