Makeshift
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Smile as if the whole world came to see you
Try as I might
I’ll never understand just what you’ve been through
Time, will carry you home while leaving me to find
Leaving me to find pieces of a life you’ve left behind
Caught myself shaking on the floor
Unsure of the thoughts I can’t ignore
No please, don’t leave
They’re still so much for you to see here
Feel as of late I’m making progress
Tell myself to listen more and maybe talk less
And keep in mind that every life is just a process
Take it in stride, take it in stride
Maybe small steps?
What is loss to you, what is loss to you my friend
(Second guessing how you’re leaving)
What is loss to you
(I find it harder now to breath in)
Caught myself shaking on the floor
Unsure of the thoughts I can’t ignore
No please, don’t leave
They’re still so much for you to see here
I am questioning most everything I have
Just know that I’ll be alright
Though our lives can seem so makeshift
And though the rope can feel so frayed
I’ll remember every word you said
Like it was only yesterday
(I am so scared without you here)
Though our lives can seem so makeshift
And though the rope can feel so frayed
I’ll remember every word you said
Like it was only yesterday
(I am so scared without you here)
