As I sit here thinking,
About you and I,
And how we used to play together,
We could see eye to eye.

As I sit here thinking,
About how it used to be,
And how you used look,
With each new thing you’d see.

As I sit here thinking,
About how you hurt yourself,
And how something in your life was missing,
I hope you found your hearts wealth.

As I sit here thinking,
About life after death
And I realize you are happy
You no longer hide behind a mask.
