I Can't Believe You Died

My heart is heavy
My limbs are cold
My chest is hollow
My mind is numb

I already taste the anger
Tearing the back of my throat
Feel it creeping up my sadness
Hear it cracking down my walls

I didn't know that empty houses
Were able to ever be so loud
What do I do now with this sorrow?
Is there a place to lay it down?

Do I have to take upon myself
the many years you didn't have?
Is the night longer for the living?
Will you be watching from the stars?

Sorry I can't explain to your dog
Why are you never coming back
I wish that you'd wake up tomorrow
I wish that I could sleep tonight.
