I thought I was very strong

That I could handle anything

The one day this wretched Earth

Had one less human being

I didn't know her very well

We were very young, you see

But no matter how strong I was

It hurt every part of me

I crumpled like a pile of sand

My life no longer mattered

Inside and out was pain

My very heart was shattered

Doing nothing doesn't help

It doesn't ease the pain

And with each tear I shed

There is nothing that I gain

So I must go on in life

And get up from this terrible fall

'Cuz living without my baby sister

Gave me the greatest strength of all
