[Verse 1]
In this old message you're alive
The jokes, the laughter, and the lies
If I’d said something true and wise
Could I have saved you?
Now I
May never know
[Verse 2]
There's a flaming sword that bars my way

Could that memory have birthed the words to say
That would have healed you?
Now I
May never know
[Chorus]
And now I'll cry
That’s all I can do for now
And so

Should I have starved you?
Now I

[Verse 4]
The night's a tyrant, the day's a thief
Stealing all but the weight of grief
Was this the only way that peace
Could embrace you?
Now I
May never know
[Chorus]
And now I'll cry
That's all I can do for now
And so
I will cry
Because I
May never know
Because I
May never know
Because I
May never know
May never know
