“Goodbye Crystal” is a song I wrote about witnessing my older sister’s death, Crystal.
I’m explaining it in my pov, how I felt, how I saw it.
Seeing her death really affected me in all kinds of ways. I was four and I feel stupid for not moving her or doing anything, I just stood there. I saw it, I f...
Verse 1:
I woke up in the night, and you weren't there
But then I remember the night we were scared
He had a gun and he pointed at us
Thought we wouldn't die, but you fell to the ground
He missed the first time, this is now the second round
Couldn't take the pain when I heard that shot
And it wasn't for the best 'cause now you're gone
Chorus:
Saw you fall to the ground
Felt like I was thе one who killed you
My hands werе shaking so fast
We ran to the store but you didn't last
I was four, and seeing your death?
Fuck, he should've shot me right in the head
Should've shot me instead of you
My dumbass didn't move you
And now you're doomed
I was so scared, didn't even make it to the door
Holding your hand, man, it hurt even more
Knowing you were crying with your blood on the floor
Verse 2:
Now I learned there is no right path to take
'Cause every path you take, you will end up making mistakes
This pain is temporary, it won't go away
Can't get over the fact that I let you die
Hey Crystal, found out it was Lashi
You were the closest person to me, the person I believed in
Now I can't hold you, not even through the seasons
Chorus:
Saw you fall to the ground
Felt like I was the one who killed you
My hands were shaking so fast
We ran to the store but you didn't lat
I was four, and seeing your death?
Fuck, he should've shot me right in the head
Should've shot me instead of you
My dumbass didn't move you
And now you're doomed
I was so scared, didn't even make it to the door
Holding your hand, man, it hurt even more
Knowing you were crying with your blood on the floor
Outro:
I'm sorry, I'm sorry
I know I should've done more
But I just couldn't help myself
I was young, I was stupid
Now your gone
I'm sorry
