Empty Words
And someday time will heal the pain I’ll look back and understand Why this had to happen In the bigger plan That’s what people tell me When they see my grief And empty words fall out of mouths To give themselves relief Jason’s death does not make sense Yesterday, tomorrow, or today And telling me it somehow is best Are hurtful words you shouldn’t say Everything happens for a reason Is another cruel lie Falling from well-meaning lips After I watched my Love die It’s hard to see my sorrow And not know what to say But sometimes silence and a hug Can go a long long way My path is mine alone One you can’t understand So don’t try to give advice Just sit and hold my hand
