I used to love being alone
but I have hated it since you left.
See, I have these awful thoughts that linger on
and some how I cannot repress.
But even though it was no one's fault
and everyone tells me it was for the best.
Sadness is a hard feeling to simply shake off,
I have been carrying a very heavy heart in my chest.
And so I hate being alone,
because when I am I can't stop myself
my mind refuses to let you go,
and alone I go through my private hell.
Dad, I cry. Dad, we cry
and we miss you terribly so
it was too early to say goodbye
we all wanted you to see us grow.
