(Verse 1)
And still I couldn’t see
Without a vile of your memories
Just who you were
And what you did for me
I should have been wishing for a sign
But instead, I wanted you to bleed
But I guess that’s just how it goes
Maybe its better I didn’t know
You were the only reason I stayed alive
And ever had a chance to grow
(Pre Chorus)
I wish I would have known
Oh I wish I would have known
I got hung up on the words you said
When it wasn’t personal
(Chorus 1)
Jesus Christ
Why did I have to be the one to survive?
I swear to God you’re more deserving
Of a second chance at life
Jesus Christ
How did I fail to see it all those times
You hid those moments in your memories
You shared the night you died
(Verse 2)
You weren’t supposed to see
The darkest corners of my memories
Why I pushed so hard
And why you broke with ease
Why you set your eyes to kill
And why you wished the worst for me
I took the shots because I knew that I could
I set the bait because I knew that you would
Take every chance to swing
To make me pay for every word
(Pre Chorus 2)
You know you have your mother’s eyes
You have your mother’s eyes
And I stared at them
Right until I died
You know you have your mother’s eyes
And you have your father’s pride
And despite the words I said
Your ignorance had saved your life
(Chorus 2)
Jesus Christ
Don’t question why
They gave their lives so you’d survive
Stop pretending you aren’t deserving
Of a second chance at life
Jesus Christ
I had to hide
Any good within my life
You saw those moments in those memories
I shared the night I died
(Bridge)
All I heard him say was “kill”
All I heard him say was “kill”
All I heard him say was “kill”
All I heard him say was “kill”
I heard him say “kill”
And now all I’m left with is this insurmountable guilt
I can still hear him say “kill”
I can see you bleeding still
I still have the vile that your tears had filled
