If I Could Wake You

When rooms are filled with silence deep I walk the halls, you're in my dreams If I could reach through time and space I'd give the world to see your face The pain's a tide, it swells, it heaves If I could wake you from eternal sleep Can't stop the tears running down my face, No way to understand unexplainable things One night he calls and I don't pick up, The next day I learn I'd heard his last rings If I could wake him from eternal sleep I'd say I love you, please don't leave If I somehow begged for a new diagnosis I would have saved myself from a life of grief Why didn't I open my eyes and see The awesome depth of the soul of this guy His spirit survives in stacks of lyrics So beautifully expressed they'd make you cry Composed when he stood so strong and vital Unable to find the peace that he sought Bored and tired, feeling so down Busy fighting each creeping negative thought If I could wake you from eternal sleep, I'd say 'I love you, please don't leave' If I could change that final diagnosis Would I then save us from this deep grief He wrote "I'm just a spoiled midsuburban kid With no real reason to live The kind you hear about that died With just one difference - I'm alive" My brother didn't really want to go Just mental games mapped out in font When doctors couldn't fix his ails He wrote "Life is all I really want" If I could wake you from your silent sleep I'd whisper 'I love you, please don't depart' If I could rewrite that final diagnosis Would I then mend the break in our hearts? I say goodbye, my true soul match Why'd you waste your days in sorrow? You could have had all your dreams might conjure But could never seem to face tomorrow
