To You, From Bali Lyrics

Oh I'm flying to your island

Feelin set to never leave you alone again

like I did when we were kids

You were so loud

So loud with all your loss

I withdrew to guard all that it cost

Knowing we were no longer kids

I was 13 that during that last spring

When our world still held everything

But come fall we lost a season

And I stopped seeing anything

I didn't mean to love you so mean

We were children of grief and rotten luck

I used him as an excuse to be absent brother and a far worse son

You were so open

Open and full of love

So much like a mother but too young

And for me that was just too much

You were older than me that spring

Both we both were barely teens

We touched death and it lived in our home

But I resigned to relying on me

I was your only brother left and I'm so sorry

Oh you've got a baby now

And I'll try to love her like I should have loved you in that childhood we lost
