to my best friend, Berne
you are missed.

lyrics:

you wish you had the time to say the words
you wish you would've known it should have hurt
and we all just fade away
into seconds
into days
and then we're gone

ooh
and then we're gone

you wish you knew the way to touch the sky
and bring those who are gone back into life
but we always try to say
they are somewhere better off and having better days
while they're away

why didn't you know it all before
that life leaves you destroyed and on the floor
then picks you up again
up to heaven
a god send
then back to hell again
back down to hell again

we all just fade away
into seconds
into days
and then we're gone

 we all just fade away
into seconds
into days
and then we're gone

and you wish that life would've shown that it get harder
that the things that knock your knees would make you stronger
but none of it makes sense
when the world leaves you distressed and it takes more and more
and none of it makes sense
when you feel like you're much less than you were here before

you wish you had the time to say the words
you wish you would've known it should have hurt
and we all just fade away
into seconds
into days
and then we're gone

we all just fade away

and then we're gone
ooh
