I never believed you could mourn
Someone you've never known to a depth
And yet, here I am grieving like
I've not done since the time I was ten
All my courage and my conviction
In what I knew was right and what was not
Has gone someplace unseen
Leaving me with an ache seeping knot
And though I cried just a handful
When I swallow back whatever it is that's
Choking down all my breaths
It tastes thin and saline, it tastes like tears
And when I wish the tears could
Flow like a river and purge me of this grief
They've left me abandoned
Groping for water at the end of a dry well
I've never been a big believer
In God-sent signs from heaven up above
But I'm praying for one now
To help me re-learn all the truth and love
That I lost losing you
To let me know there's still saving beyond
All that hurt, beyond the grave
So I can try resting easy knowing you're at peace
