LIL NARNIA Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hold her hand with the IV sticking out I cant
Sit and say goodbye please baby don't leave
It should have been me
It should have been me
I never felt as powerless as i did in the hospital room
Every second and hour spent saying how much i love you
Said I'll protect you but I couldn't this time
It doesn't matter how hard I tried
How the hell do I say goodbye
I wanna be the way we were
But it just keeps getting worse
Keep screaming at the nurse I'm sorry
Watch them take away your body
Oh those eyes remind me that it all ends bad
Hold her hand with the IV sticking out I cant
Sit and say goodbye please baby don't leave
It should have been me
It should have been me
Scream until you comeback
I need you please don't go yet
Give me one more day
Why would they take you away from me
I'm staring at the sky
And wonder if you're behind with
A thousand eyes on you
Sitting inside the blue it still doesn't feel real yet
Kneeling next to your bed and seeing you so damn cold
Just tell me its all a fucking lie
Oh those eyes remind me that it all ends bad
Hold her hand with the IV sticking out I cant
Sit and say goodbye please baby don't leave
It should have been me
It should have been me
