lyrics

I'm sorry I couldn't prevent you from your own fate
Well in a dream I met a younger version of you
Who still had light in her eyes
So bright and full of wonder
There was hope
That the monsters we grew up with
Hadn't yet stole
So I gave it all back to her
I gave her something she could love
And I think she does love
As you once did

I bet you'd be proud
It's not much but it's how I can help
I bet you'd be proud
Cus you know this life is gonna give her hell

It's a crushing cruel world
That takes so much and murders the truth
But I remember the truth
Yeah I remember you
When the illusions of time
Try to wash it all away
I keep it in mind for a rainy October day
And when everyone forgets
And goes about their lives
I'll always carry you with me
To do what is right
So they can think what they want
They can keep believing only what they see
They'll never know the tenderness you brought me

I bet you'd be proud
It was beautiful to watch her have something else
I bet you'd be proud
Something besides all the horror lurking around
I bet you'd be proud
She was so very happy
I bet you'd be proud
She was so very very happy
