This Avalanche

Dedicated to Papa This avalanche I'm trapped in Has got me hurt and scared Wishing I were in your arms Wishing I had been there. I want to hug you and hold you tight And never let you go Papa, please come back to me I can't live with this feeling I hold. Why were you taken from me? Couldn't you have stayed here? Had you somehow deserved this? Do you now cry angel tears? Do you ever wonder and ask Why you aren't here with me? Do you even ever see someone Who can give you the answers and see Why this has happened to us And why its taking so long To grow up and get over this So that I can get along? These words they seem so selfish Because they really are But this avalance of heartache is burying me Pushing me down into the yard. I'm drowning in this deep depression And I don't know how to get out I want to trust others to help me But with you I can't live without. So no one can help me But only one guy But that one guy is you And as I'm writing this, I cry. I don't want Christmas to make it to Earth Because that means another day without you I knew this sounds cliche, Papa, But I swear it is true. Life was short when I had you And it's even shorter now that you're gone I don't think I can deal anymore Now that I'm left all alone.
