Lyrics
How can I explain a
Expressing difficulty in explaining a profound loss.
Loss this great
Highlighting the enormity of the loss.
No one will ever
Emphasizing that the depth of the loss is beyond comprehension.
Comprehend it or feel
No one can truly feel the weight of the loss.
The weight
Reflecting on the heaviness of the emotional burden.
I used to pray that this
Expressing a desire that a specific day would never arrive.
Day would never come
Regret that the feared day has come.
But I guess no one
Observing that the message was not understood or heeded.
Got the message
Acknowledging the inevitability of meeting again.
We'll meet again
Expressing uncertainty about the future meeting but hopeful for a reunion someday.
Don't know where or when
-But we'll meet again
-Some sunny day
-Then I'll be at peace
A desire for eternal peace in sleep, accompanied by memories.
Forever in sleep
Longing for perpetual rest.
With our memories
The memories playing repeatedly in the mind.
Playing on repeat
The enduring impact of memories.
But for now I wait and hope
Waiting and hoping in the current state of loneliness.
I've never felt more alone
Expressing extreme loneliness.
Inside the home that
Feeling alone in the childhood home.
I grew up in
Nostalgia for the past and home.
What I'd gove just to
Wishing to hear the departed person speak.
Hear you speak
Longing for one more day of routine and normalcy.
Or one more day of
Yearning for the mundane routine.
Mundane routine
The emotional impact of little things.
It's the little things
The profound effect of small details.
That cut so deep
Notable moments that have caused deep emotional pain.
There's not a moment in
Reflecting on the absence of a moment without trauma.
My life that has left me
Learning to navigate life without guidance from the departed.
This traumatised
-Learning to navigate
-And find my way
-Without your guide
-They say blood is thicker
Questioning the depth of family bonds compared to love.
Than water but I know
-That statement it isn't true
-No amount of blood can
-Measure the undying love
-I had for you
Recalling the constant presence of the departed during significant moments.
All my greatest moments
-You were right there by
-My side
-No matter what it took
Emotional sacrifice made by the departed during difficult times.
To get there
-You'd make the sacrifice
-Watching you deteriorate
-Whilst putting on the
The heartbreak caused by witnessing the bravery in the face of deterioration.
Bravest face
-Broke my heart in a
-Million ways
Expressing the feeling that the departed deserved more in life.
You deserved so
-Much more
-There's not a moment in
Reiterating the traumatic impact of the absence of guidance.
My life that has left me
-This traumatised
-Learning to navigate and
-Find my way without
-Your guide
Struggling to find direction without guidance.
I'd sit in the dark and
Reflecting on cherished moments and the warmth of family.
Listen to your heart
-Beating for the ones
-You love and just another
-Chance of sunlight on
-Your skin surrounded
Painting a vivid picture of family happiness and connection.
By your children
-The warm breeze
-Flowing through the trees
-And hearing laughter from
-Your family
-I know we don't get to
Acknowledging the impermanence of having the departed forever but expressing love.
Have you hear forever
-But before you go I
-Want you to know
-It's not the end
Assuring that the departure is not the ultimate end.
We'll meet again
-I don't know where
-I don't know when
Expressing uncertainty about the timing of the next meeting but bidding goodbye with a smile.
Let's say goodbye
-With a smile
-Just for a while dear
Temporary parting and emphasizing that it's not the ultimate end.
We must part
-It's not the end
-We'll meet again
Repeating the theme of uncertain but hopeful future meetings and bidding farewell with a smile.
I don't know where
-I don't know when
-Let's say goodbye
-With a smile
-Just for a while dear
-We must part
Emphasizing the temporary nature of parting.
