Six Feet
You're six feet away I can't reach for you I can't take your hand You can't tell me it's alright
You're six feet away I can't reach for you I can't take your hand You can't tell me it's alright
As your time here ends And you say farewell to old friends
Everyone here is sad to see you go But worry not, we're happy for you, I hope you know
You’re not like them Maybe you act a bit different Or you don’t look like everyone else Or they don’t understand you when you talk
I helped you out And you got annoyed You didn't want my help Even if I thought you needed it
Even though you're far away And I won't see you soon I want you to know now That I'm thinking about you
We sit down together No work today Classes are long since over We can talk and laugh together
You rest on my pillow beside me Smiling when I smile at you You rest your head on my shoulder when no one else is around
I'm here when you fall asleep And again when you wake up I'll stay here by your side I'll keep you safe always
Your hand in mine brings me comfort Even though I can't feel it
Your smile brightens my day Even though no one else can see it
You're my piece of home that I can take anywhere
You're not really there But you're real enough to me
I thought I felt your hand in mine, but it was only sand, falling through my fingers
You were such a beautiful dream that I woke up in tears I cried harder when I realized it was over, that it wasn't real
Even though I see your face everywhere, and can't get your voice out of my head
You were never real I was only dreaming
