I decided to follow my dad's idea and pay tribute to my mom through relevant song lyrics. I tend to listen to music for their lyrics; so I had an easy time finding this song. After reading my dad's post; I have to admit that I teared up slightly because of the words from the song and knowing he and my mother's connection. It's depressing to think the love that was lost through careless actions. I myself regret never saying enough to my mother; and not getting PROPER closure... throughout most of my mother's illness I'm ashamed to say that I was angry at her for lack of understanding and in the end; while I got SOME closure... I never got to have that final talk with her. I don't think any of us did; really. These lyrics are from the song "Words" by Skylar Grey.
Always in a rush Never stay on the phone long enough Why am I so self-important? Said I'd see you soon But that was, oh, maybe a year ago Didn't know time was of the essence So many questions But I'm talking to myself I know that you can't hear me any more Not anymore So much to tell you And most of all goodbye But I know that you can't hear me any more It's so loud inside my head With words that I should have said And as I drown in my regrets I can't take back the words I never said I never said I can't take back the words I never said Always talking shit Took your advice and did the opposite Just being young and stupid I haven't been all that you could've hoped for But if you'd held on a little longer You'd have had more reasons to be proud So many questions But I'm talking to myself I know that you can't hear me any more Not anymore So much to tell you And most of all goodbye But I know that you can't hear me any more It's so loud inside my head With words that I should have said And as I drown in my regrets I can't take back the words.
