Let It All Out - Nathan Grisdale

You’re kind and devoted,

Everyone knows it

You had an illness,

But you didn’t show it

This is your story,

And I’ll be your weakness

Your body is broken,

Your horrible sickness

Struggling to sleep at night,

Wish that everything would be alright, you hide it

Finally ask if you’re ok,

You tell them you’ve had better days, you fight it

Your struggling to tell your friends that this is how the story ends and you’re

dying

Your beating heart will fall apart

And you forever see the dark, and you’re crying

So let it all out,

Don’t keep it all in

Let it all out,

I won’t say it again

You tell us you’re sorry,

But we don’t accept it

You say it’s God’s decision,

But we won’t respect it

You carry on working,

Like nothing is wrong

We tell you to quit now,

But you were too strong

You’re making out like you’re ok,

But in your eyes we see the pain,

It’s so bad

The doctors said there’s not long left,

The cancer’s spread throughout your chest,

And it’s so sad

And we’ll be there to hold your hand,

Help you through to the holy land when it’s over

Close your eyes and go to sleep in the clouds one day we’ll meet, we’ll hold you

So let it all out,

Don’t keep it all in.

Let it all out,

I won’t say it again.
