Kaeson Rempel - Nightingale Lyrics

I'm too scared to text you
I get flashbacks to last June
Where I watched you fade away
But now I'm here in your Protegé
And suddenly it's all okay

Your gray times abiding
With snow comes its silence
I don't blame you for slipping
And I can tell that you're nervous
But that shows you have promise
To do more than anything

But man I know it's so hard
Everything's against you, got dealt some bad cards
So I hope you find a way out
Scratch that I know you will without a doubt

So here's to us and the long lives we might live
Broken but still worth more than nothing
Stuck in the rough, stuck in this sad old town
But just until we make it

Don't cry, ask how instead of why
And don't die, reach for the unknown sky
Like a nightingale

I hope blue takes you over
As you're still getting older
There's still so much left to do

'Cause man you're only 22
A world of possibilities needs you to peak through
So I hope you find a way out
Scratch that I know you will without a doubt

So here's to us and the long lives we might live
Broken but still worth more than nothing
Stuck in the rough, stuck in this sad old town
But just until we make it

Don't quit, think of your precious kid
Keep that flame lit, and blossom because of it
Like a nightingale
