It's been five or six years.. Still isn't easy without you here. I wonder if you have been watching me Seeing the mistake I'm becoming to be.. All I ever wanted was to make you proud Not you crying down from the clouds. I've tried to fix it all But, I can't get back up when I fall. I'm choosing all the wrong paths Making all the wrong choices I'm not the same little girl I once was I'm not the same little girl you once loved.... On your death bed you said, "She'll be someone amazing." That unspoken promise we made I wasn't able to keep. For as you can see - I'm a nothing. Just a shadow among the unseen. I've tried to fight I've even prayed to the earth's light. All I want is to make you proud And here you shout my name from the clouds.. Grandpa... I'm trying "I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry"
It's been five or six years.. Still isn't easy without you here. I wonder if you have been watching me Seeing the mistake I'm becoming to be..
