[Verse 1]
Oh, I'm angry, I'm hurt and I'm in pain
Oh, death come quickly
Don't wanna go insane
Don't wanna go insane
I'm so tired, feel the blood dry in my veins
It burns like the sun
There's no air in my lungs
No air in my lungs
[Chorus]
Tell him when he gets here
There will be no tears
Tell him when I left here
It was never outta fear
Tell him that I'm always near
Tell him, tell him, tell him
Tell him when he gets here
There will be no tears
Tell him when I left here
It was never outta fear
Tell him that I'm always near
Tell him, tell him, tell him
[Verse 2]
Please don't let him think that he's
The reason that I went away
Please always be kind to him
Be strong for him, oh Lord, I pray
Please always be there for him
Until your dying day
Oh, I'm naked, forgotten all my shame
Don't know who I used to be
I'll never be the same
I'll never be the same
[Chorus]
Tell him when he gets here
There will be no tears
Tell him when I left here
It was never outta fear
Tell him that I'm always near
Tell him, tell him, tell him
Tell him when he gets here
There will be no tears
Tell him when I left here
It was never outta fear
Tell him that I'm always near
Tell him, tell him, tell him
[Outro]
Please don't let him think that he's
The reason that I went away
Please always be kind to him
Be strong for him, oh Lord, I pray
Please always be there for him
Until your dying day
Oh, please
Oh, please don't let him think that he's
The reason that I went away
Please always be kind to him
Be strong for him, oh Lord, I pray
Please always be there for him
Until your dying day

[The track is about] the reality of the darkness traversed to get this album here. It’s a letter that would have been left if I hadn’t been able to finish it. It’s about a deeply personal conversation that no one dreams of having with the people they love. It’s about the legacy of love.
