BLUEBIRD

We are gathered here today To mourn the loss of all those who have lost their way Who knew there was something better, but were afraid And thought they had to settle for the pain You just wanted to be free From living in a constant state of grief Swimming at the edge of empathy I wish you had shared that weight with me I wish I could call you up And tell you that you're loved more than you thought That nothing lasts forever, pain will end That I will always be here as your friend I wish I could call you up And tell you that you're loved more than you thought
