Choir Lyrics

They found you when we were fast asleep

A brief moment of respite from the distance that we shared

The night before your best day

The night before your best day

We turned the other cheek

The dim lights in the hallways of a special afternoon

You bared your soul, and we looked the other way

It was said how much you didn't want to be here

"It's never as bad as it looks, or as good as it seems"

And now our hearts skip every time that we dream of you

A hundred souls left burning in the wake of your lasting grace

A hundred angels weeping at the empty room you left in place

But I know you see how much you're missed here

And how much we loved you

(So much!)

I still see your silhouette

It's burnt into my eyes

And I can always hear your laughter

Cause it's etched into my mind

We used to talk about everything and about nothing at all

God only knows I tried my best to reach back out but I never got that call

I'm still waiting on your response

Weeks turn to months, and months into years

The world on its axis with our lives still hanging on

How do we find our joy?

If you see it please let me know

Well, it's only goodbye for now

Neck deep in the quicksand

I hope you read this

I hope you hear this now

(I know we'll see you again someday!)

Neck deep in the quicksand

I can finally sleep

Now that your pain is gone
