44

[Verse 1]
Your voice stands out from the rest
Four brothers, but you seem like the youngest
I only knew you as the smart kid
But you’re so much more than just inventive
Sick in bed with a cold or something
A lot of time for me to do nothing
But watch you on my screen
And find glee in your celebratory jumping
Star of the show, everything I want to be
While still sharing the same problems as me

[Chorus]
I’ve seen you die a few times now
Each death horrifically worse
They say that you’re the worst fighter
You play with sticks in the dirt
They let your brain redefine you
From the badass you were
I took so long to find you
And swallow up your hurt

[Verse 2]
This iteration was something special
You were a sweet soul, a fighter, and helpful
The best parts from every version
You found religion all too stressful
Where was the logic in the spectral
You gave me complete immersion
Even when you built portals to other dimensions
Even with your life-saving inventions
I still kept hope that we shared a spirit
And when your shell gave you no damn protection
And you almost found heavenly ascension
Our story still felt oh so coherent

[Chorus]
I’ve seen you die a few times now
Each death horrifically worse
They say that you’re the worst fighter
You play with sticks in the dirt
They let your brain redefine you
From the badass you were
I took so long to find you
And swallow up your hurt

[Bridge]
I’ve seen you rise and fall, in all sorts of ways
I’ve stood by you through it all, survived the hate
‘Cause I know deep down, all the shit you take
It’d cause you to drown, it’d make your whole head break
If no one else will love you the way I do
I hope you know you’re welcome to stay in my room
In my phone or on the pages, I would always give you grace if
You brought danger to my home, ‘cause I know just how far you’ll go
To keep me safe
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
Whatever it takes
