I started writing this song on the 7/3/21. This song is very personal to me because I wrote this about my grief journey. My mother passed away due to terminal cancer in January 2020.
Verse 1
How do I get my feet unstuck from the ice?
Grief is the hardest wave I’ve had to ride.
Chorus 1 (x2)
The scenery is moving so quickly.
While I’m trying to catch up on healing.
If you were here, I’d be home again.
Verse 2
In order to survive I had to keep going.
Cause what other goddamn choice did I have.
Chorus 2 (x2)
The laughs of others are trying to distract me.
While I’m trying my best to stop the blur in front of me.
If you were here, I’d be home again
Bridge
I walk home from the grocery store.
Bringing back something just to see you smile.
Warm hugs and kind green eyes.
I never knew anything else cause I always had you.
I can feel that you are still here.
Even though it’s your voice I can’t hear.
You always have things to say.
Once all your chances have gone.
All I have left are hand me down coats.
And the photos that we always took.
Cause who knew when it would be the last time.
Why do the good ones always go early?
And leave the living wondering how to keep living.
Pre-Chorus
I can feel you ever so lovingly.
Watching over me.
I can feel you ever so wonderfully.
Giving me the love I need.
Chorus 1
