I'm passing the time
Unaware that I've slowly fallen apart
So realization comes in waves
And shows me that there's a better way
To live this life
But most times I don't even realize
That I'm breaking down
Most days you'll find me praying for a miracle
Living a life of make believe
Won't open up my eyelids
Just to see her leave
And even though I'm left feeling empty
Looking at the days ahead
Deep down I know there's life left in me
With so much love, so much so much love left for me to give
I swore the day the of the diagnosis
That I would never let another moment slip through my fingertips
I'd never take love for granted again
And yet here I am being buried by what I think should have been
And instead of being grateful
I'm upset that things aren't the way I hoped they'd be like
Opening the door to see my mother's skin covered in crimson
A condition eating her away from within always in agony
No remedy
And even though I'm left feeling empty
Looking at the days ahead
Deep down I know there's life left in me
With so much love, so much so much love left for me to give
Though I'm engulfed by immense stress
As the concept of failing this family sits on my shoulders
I know I've gotta dig deep utilizing the love left in me
From this day on I'll scream until my throat's collapsing
'Til there's not an ounce of strength left in me
I'll die on my feet
And even though I'm left feeling empty
Looking at the days ahead
Deep down I know there's life left in me
With so much love, so much so much love left for me to give
Looking at the days ahead
Deep down I know there's life left in me
With so much love, so much so much love left for me to give
Feeling empty
A rhythm pounds inside this chest
Deep down I know there's life left inside of me
With so much love left to give
