Wyler Adair - The Event lyrics

I miss you
I'll never be prepared to let you go

It was 2013, yeah, you got diagnosed
You phoned us up and
Every heart just explodes
We start crying but eventually
The tears go away
But I'm praying that you'll make it cos
I know that you're so brave
Couple years on and you've had some treatment
But it wasn't really working
You didn't even have the same spirit
You keep getting worse it's like
One night in the hospital
One night in the hospice
At this point round the house
You're the only gossip
I'm just praying that you don't
End up in the casket
Couple more visit's round the hospice
And you're looking fine
But then we don't get to see you cos
You're starting to look like a skeleton
Now all that's going through
My body is adrenaline
Mum comes back one night from the hospice
Tells me that you might not last any longer
At this point there's no point
In seeing anymore doctors
Now it's 7: 42, yeah 7: 42
And I'm only just waking up but why would
My uncle be calling us at 7: 42?
He never calls, my heart starts to explode
And we get the message from him
About how you're now a ghost


He said you died at 5am
Man I'll never get to see your face again
Should've saved the last minute
I can't even go back to the beginning
Couple months later and I'm starting to
Get bullied at school again
People know about what happened how
Could they do this
And with exam stress everythings starting to
Get on top of me i'm losing it
And so that one night I end
Up getting out a knife
I'm contemplating it but don't wanna do it
I know my family love me
But they never show it
Eventually my mum manages to disarm me
And I start to panic
She's able to calm and sit me down
I'm drowning in my tears
With a massive frown
Couple months later and I've
Started getting counselling
You'll never know what it's like to
Be hurt deep inside till one
Of the ones you love the
Most gets burried deep underground
And I pray you never do
It really puts you in a mood
But there's so many people
Out there supporting you
You just gotta find the right state of
Mind and work out what to do

Yo, in the words of Anth: "Why
The ones you love the most
Always the first to go, death leaves
A pain nobody can heal
But the love leaves a
Memory nobody can steal"
