Can you complain about bloodied hands when you alone picked up broken glass?

[tahoori]

To see you again

To hear your voice

To ask for forgiveness

To ask for forgiveness

To ask for forgiveness

[tahoori]

I’m sorry I didn’t do enough to help you, I was scared I didn’t know what to do.

If I knew back then what I knew now maybe just maybe you’d still be here?

Or maybe that’s just a thought to help me cope.

Either way I still think about what I could’ve done to keep you here with us.

I’m sorry I didn’t do enough for you.

I wish you didn’t leave so soon.

I wish I could talk to you again.

Don’t pour water on me I’m already drowning

[tahoori]

You’re killing me with your words,

You’ve chewed me up and spat me out,

And boy it really hurt.

Dead calm

[tahoori]

The birds don’t sing the songs they used to anymore, Flowers don’t bloom as bright as they used to anymore.

[tahoori]

My hands are still covered in dirt, I did what you said?

Why am I still covered with stains?

Why am I still drowning with guilt?

[tahoori]

Deep down I am jealous of those who do not fear death- as I feel like I am not prepared to face judgement day yet I do nothing to better myself

[tahoori]

“Kinnda wished he’d left a note you know what I mean”

[tahoori]

And to my future son, may you walk freely throughout this life without your mind being a burden. May you walk through this life without doubt consuming you.

[tahoori]

Will it pass or will it linger? Please just tell me I can’t bare it any longer.

[tahoori]

There is nothing wrong

[tahoori]

And as the holy month comes closer I finally get to cleanse myself, I pray my stains wash off.

I pray my hands get clean.

[tahoori]

Is it too late to come back home?
