49 days was all
That it took to descend into the fall
Stubborn sick tightened its grip
Before long you were gone
And my god it came quick
All I could do was bring lavender
I won't leave you alone in the dirt
Till the blood leaves your body
For all that it's worth
I won't live another day on this earth
Till the lavender's gone and it no longer hurts
Seven weeks if I can recall
As I swam in a sea of alcohol
Heatwave raged on into the night
But I can't say I noticed
As you lost your light
All I could do was bring lavender
We lost you today in the noise and haste
And I'm in the fray with my grief
Left to face
I'm like a drunk in a midnight choir
Loosing the faith in
The strength of my fire."
