    Lyrics:
    After I knew there was only bad news
    Your hospital bed felt more like a waiting room
    And I had to leave before you left
    Cause I was too weak to watch your last breath
    I thought time healed every wound ‘til I lost you
    I swear life has been so cruel
    Taking it all away, everyone, everything’s gone but the pain
    I’ll just lie
    Say I’m fine as tears run dry
    I thought time healed every wound ‘til I lost you
    It hurt like hell when I dropped your clothes off at Goodwill
    Now It smells like cigarette ash in my backseat
    somehow it feels like you’re next to me
    I need you right now
    Cause I can’t see the end
    The space you left goes on forever

      I lost my mom on Christmas eve-eve 2023, with her in and out of the hospital for the past two years. This song does an amazing job vocalizing my thought process throughout her demise, and where my struggles have been everyday since then. This is beautiful, thank you for the song.

(sub beans for meat). ya'll said we were the 3rd TBell you stopped at and we were the only ones to be able to accommodate your order. you guys were so cool in the drive thru window. gave me a free cd and a t-shirt as your thanks. been a fan ever since.

This song touched me differently, but I can feel in it the inner rage and incomprehension overall.
