| Lyrics: | why do they ask why can’t they see not enough time has gone by and I'm still not me they don’t understand the burden I bear why were you taken so soon it's just not fair do they know does it show is it written all over my face I just want to get through this with a little grace so I break down when I know there's no one around turn down the lights sit in the dark pray to god to please make this pain stop then I'll be strong do my best to try to move on from an ordinary day when everything changed the doctors have said the counselors have spoke but they're not the ones who've lost faith in everything they know is all of this real is it just a bad dream will I wake up in bed turn my head and see you next to me everyday I find ways to get back to regular life but sometimes I give up the fight and I break down when I know there's no one around turn down the lights sit in the dark pray to god to please make this pain stop then I'll be strong do my best to try to move on but I'm still re-living that day when everything changed I can hear the sound of your voice smell the scent of your clothes everybody listens but nobody knows time can heal wounds but the past will leave scars oh my god can you hear me I'm crying out loud CHORUS so many things that I wish I could say on that ordinary day when everything changed |
