I cannot bare to believe that you have left this Earth

I couldn't stare as they covered you up with dirt and left

With all the best intent

And all your eloquence

The price we paid to know you

Your smile is stretching from the stars

I am still standing here in solace

I sense the writhing

Peeling off your skin

As the coals burn

We'll walk on fire

The lines you carved remain

Too many days to remember

Too many times have I tried

The price we paid to know you

The price we paid to know you

A dark shadow was cast with your departure

Now dig our way out from this mudslide and survive

With all the best intent

And all your eloquence

The price we paid to know you

Projecting light from beyond

We stare until the bruises soften

Never will there

Be another you

As the Sun turns

We hold you tighter

The final curtain calls

How many ways you brought pleasure

How many nights you brought to life

The price we paid to know you

The price we paid to know you
