Why did you cry when you heard I died
Why do you only care now that I’m gone
I just wanted you to show up when I was alive
I waited and waited and tried to hold on
I didn’t want to be a bother for long
I wish I had more days to show you my love
But I was a problem for everyone
I don’t know why I never felt like I belonged
If only I was stronger like you
Please don’t cry now that I’m gone
Just hold on and wait for the dawn
Soon you’ll wake up from this bad dream
You’ll see that your life is easier without me
