If it all came down
to a final day
and you knew it would happen
anyway
the songs of laughter
they died today
it was all over
before I could say
You the were the brother I never had
You took away the pain
we were always there with each other
now you're buried in the rain
open casket shows your face
but I could never take a glance
I would burst in tears of remorse
because you never had a chance
you wanted to become a movie star
you wanted to make it big in Hollywood
you wanted your name across the country
you wanted to use your money for charitable good
and the pressure was too much
foster parents didn't care
and the bone cancer you had
made life so unfair
and it took away
from being a boy
in a teenage life
that should be filled with joy
you just wanted to be loved
you just wanted to be kissed
but now you're away
in heaven you'll be missed
You the were the brother I never had
You took away the pain
we were always there with each other
now you're buried in the rain
open casket shows your face
but I could never take a glance
I would burst in tears of remorse
because you never had a chance
Some search for laughter and purpose
but you, didn't feel that worthless
you wrote songs, everyday
and you'd read them off to me
we helped each other too much
but I feel I took from you
the chances of being loved
God what should I do
and it all came down to a gun
the bullet so cold, and the blood so warm
a father lost a son
but he was never warned
and the cell phone rang
in my pocket today
got a voicemail
and what it had to say
made me feel like I could die
I just couldn't breathe
and now you're gone what's going on
now that you've left me
You the were the brother I never had
You took away the pain
we were always there with each other
now you're buried in the rain
open casket shows your face
but I could never take a glance
I would burst in tears of remorse
because you never had a chance
and I wish I could forget the pain
but it won't ever happen
I'll think of you when I see the rain
I hope you look back laughing
