Run
Being back home for the last two weeks was a good but difficult time as my family and I watched my grandma leave this life and run for Heaven's Gates.Today is my first day back in Japan and I am still processing the emotions of my grandma passing away. I know She is in a better place and I am joyful for that. But today as I heard the song Run by Snow Patrol I felt that mix of emotions really rise up in me. I'm not sure what the meaning is of the song originally but I found myself wanting to listen to it over and over again and I slowly changed it a bit to better fit my feelings these past few day.
So here's my version
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then you really have to go
He's been the only thing that's right
In all we've done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know you'll make it far away
Away from here
Light up, Light up
For you have a Hope
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
As you run for New Life
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I really do
Light up, Light up
For you have a Hope
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
As you run for New Life
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say
Slower slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
to get out of our little world
Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making it out of this life's mess
Light up, Light up
For you have a Hope
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
