Live For What Lasts - Worthwhile

After 5 years of fighting this

One autumn took on more meaning for us

Psalm 23 below the stairs

Around old photos, but your face will disappear

Earnest prayers and heartfelt tears

On the field that night.

They graced our ears

Your waves through the passenger window

Meant more than a simple goodbye

Winter comes, winter goes

We hold composure like weeping willows

Your empty lungs and quiet heart

Finally bring you peace but tear our hearts apart

«What I’d give to live our last 10 years again

I promised you I would do it so much different.»

These are the serious strums of a sad song

As the sun sets, the silhouettes simplify the scene

I call it inconsistency

And oh God, give us a sunrise

Let midnight turn to morning

And let me see clearly why you would let this happen to

A family

We laugh cause it hurts too much to cry

You live in memory of him

Carry on kid!

And just like him live for what lasts

To become the man he saw you to be
