lyrics

Verse:
16 years old, we were bold, what did we know
We lived carefree like a movie scene so naive
we were ready, we had big dreams, life felt like eternity

Didn't know life would turn in just one moment
Suddenly all the ease turned into problems
a few more years that was all you were given
One disease with no return

Bridge:
And I ask if there was a God
Would he ever give you up?

Chorus:
I keep trying to search for answers
piece by piece put it all together…
I keep searching, I find nothing
(feels) like diving into empty spaces

i still feel your presence around here
hope that you finally find your peace
in the griefing i’m feeling relieving
now you’re home

Verse II:
Time is like water that runs through our hands
we cannot hold on to it, there will always be an end
a few years quickly turned into a few moments
And now you just won't return

Pre Chorus
and they say if we pray to god
he would always protect good hearts

Chorus

Middle 8
