about

I originally started working on this in a hotel room when I ran away to Windsor in 2017. Didn't write the lyrics til now..

lyrics

You dropped your cig like
You never cared for it
I could have been there to see you off

You picked up the mic
You spit venom in the air
I could have been there to wipe your brow off

You screamed and cried
Like they were your last breaths
I could have been there to hold your chair down

You laid down layers
Til they were drowning in the tones
I could have been there to turn the bass up

You went home alone
To do just what you did
I could have been there to turn the light off

You died in your bed
A needle in your arm
I could have been there to see you off
