100 Red Flowers Lyrics

Emptiness in the pit of my stomach
nothing has ever felt this true before

can't your eyes close tonight
as you lay for us to view, once more

goodbye is for sure and they say you're too high
but i feel you inside me; they insist that you're gone
can't your spirit carry on, carry on and just be free

you know you can call me anytime you need help
so why did you not say a word when you fell
cuz now you've left us to live on our own
and we miss you at home and we miss you at home

so why did you go the one place i can't follow
this basket of fruit has been so hard to swallow
cuz your not around to fight over snacks with
and i'm needing this
and i'm needing this

did you fail to see
did you fail to think
of all who would miss you
of all who would gather
to say farewell to what we've loved so dearly
i miss you my sister, i hope you can hear me.

you know you can call me anytime you need help
so why did you not say a word when you fell
cuz now you've left us to live on our own
and we miss you at home and we miss you at home

so why did you go the one place i can't follow
this basket of fruit has been so hard to swallow
cuz your not around to fight over snacks with
and i'm needing this
and i'm needing this

well i cried on my knees on that funeral lawn
with a hundred red flowers that tell me you're gone
i don't want to see i don't want to believe
just wake up and tell me this whole things a joke
just wake up and tell me this whole things a joke
just wake up and tell me i don't have to be here alone
