Did it hurt and were you scared?

Why must life be so unfair?

Here one minute, the next you're gone

When all was right, what went wrong?

I stand before a lifeless love

Your body here, your soul above

My breath gets short, my heartbeat slows

Never have I felt so low

Haunted by these restless thoughts

Answers to my questions sought

Why was it you? Did it have to be?

Why is life so cruel to me?

Like a child curled up on the floor

I cry cause I can take no more

Shattered like a piece of glass

When will all this sadness pass?

Then memories rush back through my mind

As I'm watching them lower your coffin in time

To think that this box holds one so pure

I don't understand why you couldn't stay here

And I'm wondering now, did you think of me?

In those final seconds, what did you see?

I pray they were happy, the thoughts that you had

When you left this world and me so sad

But I have to accept it, I have to move on

I'm the only one here and the sun's almost gone

So I make you this vow with all of my heart

We'll reunite one day what God broke apart

Now I bid farewell to your soul above

I say goodbye to my lifeless love

Though it isn't right and it feels so wrong

I'll cherish the minutes before you were gone

I hate that life is so unfair

It hurts like hell knowing you're up there
