[Verse 1]
You were my first best friend
Someone I looked up to
Even when you gave me shit for the hell of it
It was always love
I would watch you play guitar
Singing a soundtrack to our lives
Even though we were oceans apart
I never thought we'd run out of time
[Pre-Chorus]
When the voices in your head
Try to go and drive you mad
I was there to pick up the phone
We were family, we were blood
Any time you needed love
If you're listening from above
I just wanna know
[Chorus]
Was your time here on Earth just too much to handle?
Did you feel in the dark like a fireless candle?
No matter how, you tried to fight through your sorrow
If I saw you today, I'd never wait for tomorrow
To say, you are loved
I would say, "You are loved"
[Verse 2]
You were my brother
A bond nobody could break
And I'll always wonder
If I could've done something to make you stay
[Pre-Chorus]
When the voices in your head
Try to go and drive you mad
I was there to pick up the phone
We were family, we were blood
Any time you needed love
If you're listening from above
I just gotta know
[Bridge]
Was your time here on Earth just too much to handle?
Did you feel in the dark like a fireless candle?
No matter how, you tried to fight through your sorrow
If I saw you today
[Chorus]
Was your time here on Earth just too much to handle?
Did you feel in the dark like a fireless candle?
No matter how, you tried to fight through your sorrow
If I saw you today, I wouldn't wait for tomorrow
To say, you are loved
I would say, "You are loved"
[Outro]
Was your time here on Earth just too much to handle?
Did you feel in the dark like a fireless candle?
No matter how, you tried to fight through your sorrow
If I saw you today, I'd never wait for tomorrow

I wrote this song 3 days after my brother passed, till this day I don’t quite understand how I had the strength to write this, the pain was so unbearable but it was the only way I could process my feelings in that moment.
Until now I haven’t felt strong enough to post this, but now I feel I want to...
