Elegy lyrics
by As I Lay Dying
[Verse 1]
Did you ever see me?
Or could you even see at all?
I looked at your cold white face
So still, so empty
Yet I knew you were at rest
I knew you were at rest
[Pre-Chorus]
Much more comforted than I
What else could I find to replace who you were?
It was the carefree unrestricted love that
[Chorus]
You never meant to give
You never had the choice
You never meant to give
You never had the choice
[Verse 2]
It was your innocence
It was part of who you were
[Pre-Chorus]
What else could I find to replace who you were?
It was the carefree unrestricted love that
[Chorus]
You never meant to give
You never had the choice
You never meant to give
You never had the choice
[Outro]
It was your innocence
It was part of who you were
It was your innocence
It was the comfort of a friend
It was your innocence
It was part of who you were
It was your innocence
It was the comfort of a friend
