Stayed Blue

You're the reason why I cant listen to those same songs I used to

I texted you the other day to see whats new

But the text stayed blue

I wish it wasn't true

You're gone and I don't know what to do

I wish I had a clue

So much I wish I told you, only if you knew

I have a paper due, but the only things I can write are about you

you're a long way from home now

And there's nothing I can do

I wish you'd come back to us dude

If you would have talked to us we could have helped you through

You were selfish

Did you ever think about the crew

I'm sorry dude

I broke down when I heard the news

You should have seen the camera crews

Things wont be the same since we lost you

Everyone came to the funeral

The words your mom spoke were truly beautiful

But you're home now and thats indisputable

Your family has been up to the usual

Your brother nick grew up quick

Hes been kickin it with this chick

Wish you could see his clique you'd get such a kick

Were starting to get a grip

We all know you were sick

Never thought you'd be the one to slip

We took a trip to see you

Sparked an l and reminisced

You are truly missed

Im saying this with a clenched fist

Because I'm pissed

But I'll see you when we coexist

For now I'll just drift

And sift through the emotions

That inhibit the motions

I now understand the notions

You were gold and thats why you could never stay

You're gone now

I just wish there was something I could say
