Lyrics

Verse 1
Walking the halls at school,
Nobody even looked at you.
Limping more slowly than the rest,
It was obvious you were depressed.

Verse 2
Other kids had their concerns.
How could they ever care for yours?
They didn't hear when the doctor said
You wouldn't use your legs again.

Verse 3
The doctor he said it looked bad.
Too busy living, we couldn't be sad.
Day after the funeral, I saw the news.
A few little lines near an ad for shoes.

Chorus
Our eyes were dry,
Because we didn't know.
No tears to cry,
No grief to show.
Above the sky,
You were already home.

Chorus 2
Your pain was mine,
If I'd only known.
Now just a rhyme,
Down here below.
Here where you lie
You are still alone.
