Day after day

I am left alone

To comfort everyone

But myself.

I try to keep things together

And whether

Or not it all works out I'm the only one

Left to make things okay.

Everyone's gone that can make it better

And no matter what happens I have to stay

To keep everyone going

Day after day.

I can't cry,

I can't smile,

I can't laugh,

I can't yell.

All I can do is keep all this moving

Day after day

To make them alright .

I have to ignore every fight,

Every long night where I can't sleep

To make him stay with me

For just one more day.

Day after day

I miss him and the way it was

Before I had to start living

And dying
