The Robin (For Mei Mei)

You called your granddad on his birthday Such a normal thing to do Like you knew family still mattered In spite of what you were going through How bad does the pain have to be For it to be the only thing you see? Not the love of your family Or your bright life ahead? I know you never meant to hurt us And this wasn't for revenge Some deep darkness down inside you Was telling you it had to end How bad does the pain have to be For it to be the only thing you see? Not the love of your family Or your bright life ahead? How's it possible that such a beautiful girl Can't see her beauty reflected in the world? How's it possible that such a beautiful girl Can't see her beauty reflected in the world? So now your pain has finally ended And ours just starting to begin A tiny stab for every memory But a smile for every pic you're in Yeah, your story hasn't ended And your light will always shine You will always be remembered As a Robin bringing us springtime How bad does the pain have to be For it to be the only thing you see? Not the love of your family Or your bright life ahead? Or your bright life ahead? You called your granddad on his birthday Such a normal thing to do
