Letters to Lauras

There was no epiphany moment for me Where I found I felt differently The truth is that it's been my truth since birth But I never began to question Until your honest song first crept in And rose my demons from the earth And you were so so so damn sure So strong and yet so pained Goddamn, you opened my eyes And I won't be the same Oh laura laura laura There's nothing I can do Oh laura laura laura I wish that I were brave like you There's no worse tragedy Than a broken family Only 14 on christmas eve With her crying on my shoulder And I won't pretend to imagine The pain that you were both left in But what she did to him can't be forgiven And you so so so damn know He loved you like his own Goddamn sister I miss you But the seeds are sown Oh laura laura laura I wish you knew the truth Oh laura laura laura We only want the best for you Oh laura laura laura There's nothing I can do Oh laura laura laura We only want the best for you
