i miss the memories we'll never have
October 5th
The only that was felt as Luke's "deadline" neared, was stress and anxiety.
Julie could barely even sleep, Alex and Reggie were still in shock and denial, and Carrie had broke down.
Their best friend had 3 days to wake up, and if not, they don't know what they'd do.
Julie used the only coping mechanism she knew.
writing.
She sat at her piano, and just brainstormed lyrics.
"Ummm..I..I gave ..all my ox-oxygen?" she started. "I gave all my oxygen."
In no time, she had a full song.
"I gave all my oxygen to people that could breathe
I gave away my money and now we don't even speak
I drove miles and miles, but would you do the same for me?
Oh, honestly?
Offered off my shoulder just for you to cry upon
Gave you constant shelter and a bed to keep you warm
They gave me the heartache and in return I gave a song
It goes on and on
Life can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf
My farewell
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myselfI gave you all my energy and I took away your pain
'Cause human beings are destined to radiate or dream
What line do we stand upon 'cause from here looks the same?
And only scars remainLife can get you down so I just numb the way it feels
I drown it with a drink and out of date prescription pills
And all the ones that love me they just left me on the shelf
My farewell
So before I save someone else, I've got to save myself
But if don't
Then I'll go back
To where I'm rescuing a stranger
Just because they needed saving just like that
Oh, I'm here again
Between the devil and the danger
But I guess it's just my nature
My dad was wrong
'Cause I'm not like my mum
'Cause she'd just smile and I'm complaining in a song
But it helps
So before I save someone else
