I don’t understand how we ended here You were just laughing, now you’re gone A body remains, but you're not in it And no one can tell me what went wrong It’s stupid, it’s cruel, it’s mortal and strange The things we take for granted slip away And she’ll never sip that fruit punch again Never yawn at the end of a long day She’ll never brush her hair, or smile in the sun And no one explains why it ends this way No one explains why it ends this way He's crying but he doesn’t speak And I’m holding a cup, feeling numb Why can’t she just get back inside? Isn’t that something that should be done? It’s stupid, it’s cruel, it’s mortal and strange The small things we live for slip away And she’ll never have those scrambled eggs Never laugh at a bad joke again She’ll never see the morning light And no one explains why it has to end No one explains why it has to end The world keeps spinning, but it feels wrong Like everything we knew is gone She’s not here, she’s not anywhere And I’m just left with a blank stare And she’ll never sip that fruit punch again Never yawn at the end of a long day She’ll never brush her hair, or smile in the sun And no one explains why it ends this way No one explains why it ends this way And I don’t understand how we go on When everything we love is gone No one explains, no one can say Why she had to fade away
