You taught me that no one can be strong forever
We all have our breaking points
Even with you gone I feel less alone
But I hate that it took losing you to realize
Just how wrong I was about myself
And about everything else
I wish I could go back
I wish I could make everything alright
A treasured soul seems like such an unfair price to pay
For this broken ungrateful life I continue to lead
But life never promised to be just
Never swore to be fair
This is not fate
It can't be
Everything's just a draw of the cards
A flip of the coin
A roll of the dice
And we're betting high
Placing our lives on the line

You hide yourself among us
Just another face in the crowd
But we all know that you're so much more than that
You're a star that deserves nothing less than to shine your brightest
Others so dull in comparison
A hero standing before me
So far from my reach

— The End —
