SvdM - Can't Let You Fall lyrics

[Intro] I'm about to break the 'never speak ill of the dead', man [Verse 1] I met this man when I was 10 days old And what I loved most, he had so much to be told He told a million stories 'bout his fortunes and his glories 'Bout his youth, 'bout his 20's, 'bout his 30's, 'bout his 40's But an end must come to all and it ended with a call Auntie had a baby, I was no longer Mr. Small But I was still so young, barely two years on the board I wanted a grandpa, but I just go ignored From one day to another, it all went downhill I grew up without you, you were with them clowns still I guess there was still one thing that we had to share 'Bout the other one we didn't care Or is this how a grandpa is supposed to do? Cause forreal, you were my only one, I never knew Once we invited you, you came, but you left, it was the same You had the ask my father 'bout my name [Hook] Your weight feels like a burden up on my shoulders I'm the tallest in the room, but I feel small now It happens to the best of us when we're older And I hated you, but I can't let you fall now [Verse 2] Then the light went out and gone were the sounds You got to twice the age you told me stories about But an end must come to all and it ended with a call They rushed you to the hospital, you didn't make the hall Four hours later, we all met where you got married The will was being read, it said you wanted to be buried To my surprise, you bestowed on me no small matter You picked me to be one of the four pallbearers Me, my father, his sister, your wife I guess one could say you really hated for life Now your sis reminding me how much I look like you I thought: 'that's the biggest insult I ever took from you' And as the moment of your d**h is getting farther The room fills and it's only getting darker Now I put my hand on the handle, muscles tense from head to ankle Your decision as to why's leaving me tangled (Man, your weight feels like a burden up on my shoulders I'm the tallest in the room, but I feel small now) And as I walk towards the hearse, I hear the cracking of the dirt Everybody crying, but I don't feel any hurt Which surprised me, cause I am not a cold person But I guess that years ago, I already rolled your curtains Though this rotten day had impact in another way It marked the only time I ever saw my father pray For you, cause damn that was your bu*ter and bread You are never in my heart, but for always in my head [Hook] [Bridge] I guess that you will never be dead Never in my heart, but for always in my head [Hook]
