Emery - Returning The Smile You've Had From The Start lyrics

You wanted to know us If it was for the pain that its caused us For the lies, such a white lie Don't know what it was to deserve this As simple as I can I'll tell you the difference Between a pencil and a pen And where it will leave us Now as your body lets you die And I sit here still alive In my memory I wrote you down in ink I never wanted to erase your story Even with the tragedy it brings The fluid in your lungs That tells you you're losing Stop breathing the medicine that comes Will fix you, will help you But takes you from conscious to sleep Place my hands to face and weep In my memory I wrote you down in ink I never wanted to erase your story even with the tragedy it brings Smiling, beautiful Something torn from my hands I'm not ready for you to die [screaming] This day will end With the lies complete My closest friend Here in front of me [screaming] You wanted to know us If it was for the pain that its caused us For the lies, such a poor thing Don't know what it was to deserve this
