Parting Gift - Our Hollow, Our Home

I pass down from me to you

The road that you are lost on

Has but one path to choose

And although your soul lies heavy

It’s a weight that you must bear

Cause you will carry their loss with you always

But please don’t despair

Just wait for a sign

And the pain in your heart will die

But I can’t lie, no

It never leaves, it never leaves

It just gets easier with time

So just wait for a sign

And the pain in your heart will die

But I can’t lie, no

It never leaves, it never leaves

Cause we’re the ones they leave behind

This is a trial we all must take

To watch a loved one slip away

Into the peaceful rest of death

Where pain is lifted

So you may ask me «Does it get easier than this?»

And all I can say to you is

«Take no love for granted and cherish your family

Cause the hands of time wait for no one

Like they didn’t wait for me»

Just wait for a sign

And the pain in your heart will die

But I can’t lie, no

It never leaves, it never leaves

It just gets easier with time

So just wait for a sign

And the pain in your heart will die

But I can’t lie, no

It never leaves, it never leaves

Cause we’re the ones they leave behind

I’m so sorry that you’re hurting

But please take my words as truth

Keep your head above the water

And make them proud of you

So just wait for a sign

And the pain in your heart will die

But I can’t lie, no

It never leaves, it never leaves

It just gets easier with time

So just wait for a sign

And the pain in your heart will die

But I can’t lie, no

It never leaves, it never leaves

Cause we’re the ones they leave behind
