lyrics

Feeling so helpless so useless, that thursday a new air rushed in and left us raw
I've felt a families heart break, I felt this families heart break
i held your hand with a tightened grip, holding on don't rise just yet
as the ambulance rushed around,
there's no training in this world
that can ever prepare you for the fear of loss

the way the voice shakes
as she explains
the last weeks signals and signs of decline.
with your young life, in your young hands
when lungs cannot handle air, breathing just tires you out, soul left so worse for wear, when not getting worse is getting better

the prayers never came,
when i saw my mothers back break,
holding out to support your weakening bones alone..
the prayers never came
...in times like these does faith mean a thing

when lungs cannot handle air, breathing just tires you out, soul left so worse for wear, when not getting worse is getting better
no longer could you sit, watch the grass grow outside as leaves changed tone....
when lungs cannot handle air, breathing just tires u out, despite all the falling apart one piece of you that stayed strong was your heart....
Ive learnt more about your history, just spent remebering, the picture perfect black and white of the 60's when you were alright
with your young life in your young hands,young life in young hands...
