If God is real I’m angry. Holy theft Is no excuse for youthful death. I cry And pray, but it’s too late. Until you left I had refused the thought of heaven. I Feel guilty for not knowing the whole truth Of death. To wonder what is after life Is painful when we’re stuck in naïve youth. Our hearts and minds are stabbed by grief: a knife. What if I had been there for your last breath? I cry. I’ll never know, would you have smiled To hear my voice before the calm of death? In terms of life you were only a child. We won’t forget, our hearts they wear your pin. For you, I’ll be aware of what’s a sin.

The Thoughts I Can't Escape at Night
If God is real I’m angry. Holy theft Is no excuse for youthful death. I cry And pray, but it’s too late. Until you left I had refused the thought of heaven. I Feel guilty for not knowing the whole truth Of death. To wonder what is after life Is painful when we’re stuck in naïve youth. Our hearts and minds are stabbed by grief: a knife. What if I had been there for your last breath? I cry. I’ll never know, would you have smiled To hear my voice before the calm of death? In terms of life you were only a child. We won’t forget, our hearts they wear your pin. For you, I’ll be aware of what’s a sin.
