Until I See You Again

**(Verse 1)** I don't know what waits beyond this life when my heartbeat ends, But I hope there's a place where I can hold you again, Where the years don't matter and the pain disappears, Where I don't have to miss you through a thousand more tears. I've been talking to the ceiling like you're listening close, Telling you about my struggles, all the things no one knows, I wonder if you see me when I'm fighting to survive, If you know how many times your memory kept me alive. I wish I could explain how much your absence changed me, How the world kept moving forward while my heart stayed waiting, Everybody says I'm strong, but they don't know what it costs, How I smile around the living while I'm mourning what I lost. And I would trade every dollar, every moment of fame, Just to hear you say my name and see your face again, But I know I can't go backward, so I'll carry what is true, Every step I take is one step closer back to you. **(Hook)** Until I see you again, I'll keep your name inside my chest, Even when the tears won't end, Even when I can't get rest. Until I see you again, I'll keep fighting through the pain, Death can take away your presence, But it can't erase your name. Until I see you again, I'll keep reaching for the light, And I'll hold you in my memories Through every lonely night. **(Verse 2)** I hope you know I never stopped loving you, Even when the days got dark and I didn't know what else to do, I still find you in the little things I never expected, In the songs that make me cry, in the moments I remember. I wish you could've watched me grow and seen the things I built, Seen me turn my pain to music, seen me fight through all the guilt, I would've told you that I miss you, that I wish you were around, That no matter how successful, I still need you right now. Sometimes I get so angry that I don't know where to place it, Sometimes I blame the heavens, sometimes I fucking hate it, But underneath the anger is a love that won't surrender, A bond that death can't sever and no distance can remember. So if there's any way you hear me, let this message reach your soul, I'm still trying to become the man I always hoped I'd know, And when I finally meet you, I won't need to say a thing, I'll just hold you like the years apart were never anything. **(Hook)** Until I see you again, I'll keep your name inside my chest, Even when the tears won't end, Even when I can't get rest. Until I see you again, I'll keep fighting through the pain, Death can take away your presence, But it can't erase your name. Until I see you again, I'll keep reaching for the light, And I'll hold you in my memories Through every lonely night. **(Bridge)** If heaven has a doorway, I hope you save me a place, I hope I get to see that smile and look into your face, No more unanswered questions, no more wishing you were here, No more counting all the years we had to spend without you near. And until that day arrives, I'll keep doing what I can, Keep protecting those I love and keep becoming a better man, I'll tell the world about my brother, let your memory remain, And when I finally see you, I'll never let you go again. **(Final Hook)** Until I see you again, I'll keep your name inside my chest, Even when the tears won't end, Even when I can't get rest. Until I see you again, I'll keep fighting through the pain, Death can take away your presence, But it can't erase your name. Until I see you again, I'll keep reaching for the light, And I'll hold you in my memories Through every lonely night. Until I see you again, Brother, I swear I'll make it through, And when I finally get to heaven, The first thing I'll do is find you.
