In Memory (Acoustic) Lyrics

It's been years since you've bothered to visit me

Where have you even been?

Your strength and wisdom is what guided me

The heart you had within

For years, I've lived in blindness

Awaiting some sort of sound

I wish I had your selfless kindness

The love you shared around

I've tried

To reflect the light you had inside

I've tried

To be the friend you were in my life

I've tried

I'm so weakened and frail

I've tried

But I continue to fail

I'm not so fine

I'm not so okay

I miss you so much here today

But I will be fine

I will be okay

I'll continue forward through the flame

This empty feeling is what tortures me

It makes me bitter and weak

I know you're up there watching me

But it's so bittersweet

It was so hard to survive without your hand to hold

All my cries and sleepless nights

I always feel so cold

I've tried

To carry lanterns through the night

I've tried

To be strong and put up a fight

I've tried

To hold you close inside my arms

I've tried

And now I'll guide them through the dark

So much pain I had to take

So much rage I had to keep

In memory

I will never forget your name

You left a wound in me

And though it hurts to see you leave this place

In my heart is where you'll stay

Don't ever forget their names

They are here with us

And though it hurts to see them leave this place

In our hearts is where they'll stay

We will be fine

We will be okay

We will be fine

We will be okay
