Forever Young

April 5th, 2018

It was Justin, it was Sarah
Now we’re talking about Aaron
They were all so young
My heart is feeling barren

And two years have been a challenge
There was no way to prepare
I’m getting married without my best man
How is that any fair

And I was so proud of her
She never held back what she needed to say
She had just turned twenty
When her life was taken away

And I had just talked to him
He could always make me laugh
It’s weird to not see him everyday
When he was always part of our staff

And I’ve worked with them all
Their lives had just begun
They had so much left to do
But now they’re forever young

I don’t know what friendship means
If it’s not okay to feel hurt
I don’t know who you are
Or when you turned into this jerk
You put the knife in my back
And you gave it a turn
Then you set my world on fire
And left me there to burn
You know that I’m already sick
And it’s painful to be alive
That I fight these urges every day
Because I don’t want to die
Yet you hand me the rope
And you bring me a chair
Then you leave me alone
Because you never cared
