I remember when you asked me "What do you do when it doesn't get better And you can't decide whether to hold on tight Or to let this go? How do I let this go?" It was the first time I felt true cold A stone monument with heavy words I felt the weight of every one I heard I hope you know that you can call I'm here to talk things over We can stay up till the morning Or at least till we're both sober The sorrow that you carry soon will end You're nearly past it I've been there before as well I won't take it for granted It's hard to accept and move on Search for better things To rectify what was And what still remains I hope In that moment of desperation You found Reconciliation I just wish you would have called We could have talked this over Waited till the morning Or at least till we were sober The burden that you carried didn't die You only passed it The weight pulled me to my knees When I saw your casket I remember when you asked me "What do you do when it doesn't get better?"
