lyrics

I tried to say hello, but you weren't responsive
I heard your voice on the phone, but you couldn't talk and
the nurse was so helpful, may creator bless her heart
now all I can do is remember you with my art
and it's really just not worth the loss
too little too late on my part

frozen in fear, not sure what of
watching and waiting for the news that you're gone
taking for granted that you would always be around
there's a lesson here in putting off reaching out
vulnerability is scary, but the only thing worse is
loosing your chance to be vulnerable with that person
I wish I could go back to watching hand games in that gymnasium
or when you'd call us on the phone while my mom cooked bacon
these precious memories that I'll never forget
I wish I could've known you as an adult and now I regret
sometimes it feels like that's the only feeling I live with
regret for things I didn't do and things that I did
but the things I didn't do hurt so much more
so much procrastination, but what was it all for?

so now I'm on my knees praying desperately
that we won't have to be saying rest in peace
maybe it was greedy of me, asking you to see 99
but how else was I supposed to make up for lost time?
I wanted to come see you once the pandemic was gone
but I didn't want it have to be on a headstone
either way I knew you would welcome me home
if not in this live, then in the next one
