I’ve Got You

It was the last time I felt like this

I've felt nothing at all

And I was 15 when you got sick

I still remember that phone call

They said there's something inside of you

So they tried radiation, chemicals too

And now you're standing on the last line

And so am I

I've got you

You've got me too

Oh I've got you

And you said there's broken links in your brain

And I said it's okay, mine's exactly the same

There's still some things I don't understand

Like the casual blindness toward the cruelty of man

And a cop shot the wrong guy again

And they tore down a childhood home again

Oh, nobody seemed to blink an eye

When they wanted you to pay to see the sky alive

Running out of time

You're still running for your life

These days I wish you could forget

When the broken glass cut open my arm and my chest

And you just held me down

As the needle went in and out

And mum was retracing her steps

When the doctor asked her for a cigarette

A two-year-old child in a hospital bed

I will never run with glass again

Just like you said

Don't be an idiot

I know that when you go

Part of me will go with you to the infinite unknown

And we'll stand at the edge of the divide

I will hold your hand and together we'll dive

And I will never meet a man

That can make me question life the way you can

A defender of freedom

An advocate for truth

I'm so proud that half of me grew from you

All the broken parts too

I've got you

I will always hear your voice when I speak

I will always see your face in me

I will always hear your voice when I speak

I will always see your face in me

We never found the Subway

We never found the Subway

We never found the Subway

Alright, I'm done
