It hurts to cry
You left and I was grieving
They told me you were gone
I didn’t believe it
That couldn’t have been
Your blood on the cement
The same day we had a disagreement
The same day you told me you were leaving
The day I saw your mother crying
I knew it was true they weren’t lying
I had to cry in the rain to hide my pain
I know you’re in heaven
Coz you don’t owe the devil
A got damn thing
You were good and I was bad
I was an outcast
You were all that I had
Now I’m down to nothing
Feeling bad about the things I said
I didn’t mean it
It was out of meanness
I cry a little it hurts a lot
I was sleep when I heard the shots
I salute you
You were a true troop
Unlike those bullets that hit you
I will miss you
