I see the bruises you can't hide from me
Right through the lies you tell me
I know things aren't alright
Why don't you just trust me enough to tell me

Your sick and you know it
But trying hard not to show it
So you go to school knowing
You'll be permanently absent one day

They taunt and laugh
At the sick boy In class
How can they do that
Don't they know your past ?

You go home
Your little sister asks you with a frown
"Where's has all your hair gone brother"
You wore it as a crown

Your mums  in her room
New men tonight,lady of the night
But when your Dad comes home
their will be a fight

He shouts and screams
Mamma runs with the keys
Your left alone with this man
who beats

Your sick and mentally unstable
Trying to hold together pieces of paper
It's no luck,
so you've resorted to cut

I love you so much
I can't see you like this
Open up this damn door
Are you still breathing?

You push me away every day
Friend zone feels like a plague
I'm standing up for you
But you don't even wink

You don't look me in the eyes
As if your scared of what I'd find
You'd rather be in the field
Planting flowers and daffodills

You call me one night
As I'm sleeping in tight
You say you love me and goodbye

Im so happy
you said it
Finally to excited
I didn't realise the hidden meaning behind it

I sleep happily with dreams of you
We're planting daffodils just me and you
You love the earth
So sweet and caring

I wake in the morning
I'm in horror to see my family staring wide eyed at me
What are they carrying

I ask what happened
I ask and plead
They simply say time will heal

Im scared and alone
you aren't answering your phone
I shouldn't be this scared of you being alone

I run out the house
Down the roads To your home
The same yellow daffodils follow me

I walks through your gates
Your sisters no where to be seen
It's the first time I see your father on his knees
I realised what you meant
You were dying

I sobbed and cried
Why didn't I say goodbye
All this time you never said you love me
You knew you would be around for awhile

5 weeks without you
5 weeks since your death
5 weeks alone
Stuck in this hell hole alone

I don't know what to do
I eat sleep and repeat
But I don't want to eat

You'd said you love me
Why did you have to leave?
It just isn't easy
To move on without you with me

I sit and cry
cry some more
But realise this isn't what I was meant  for

I'll make you proud 
Work on the town
Plant daffodils all around

I'll do this for you
Every second every day
Never should it be done in the wrong way

Mow the grass Keep it healthy
Clean the bottles that are empty
I love you so much
That why I have to move on dear

My smiles are back
I'm glowing inside
I walk inside
Knowing I made you proud inside
