I know that this is a silly request
And that you have important things to do...

As a child they tell you to say your prayers
Every night before you go to bed...

Time heals all wounds they say
I wonder where did that lie start...

A day went by without you
A week, a month, a year...

“What’s wrong with her today?”
“I don’t know, must be another mood...

And in my mind I was never good enough for you
It hurts me to my core...

And today I asked God to forgive me
For the sins I did not know...

I've been a borderline alcoholic for years
Some people might think it's a joke...

The thing about death is it's final
Often there's no time for one more good-bye...

I feel the weight on my shoulders as people tell...
Don’t they know that I’ve been strong for too...
