The house wasn't the same anymore.
I couldn't hear your laugh.
I couldn't even hear your voice.
Oh how i want to hear your voice.

There isn’t a family living in this house.
Not since you left.
There were three individuals who were breathing the same air,
but couldn’t speak the same language
Oh how i miss being a family.

Mom always used to garden.
The plants would always stay outside because we were allergic.
Two days after you left,
the house was filled with pollen.
I couldn't breathe.
Oh how I just wanted to breathe.

You’re gone,
But your pictures aren’t.
Three months later and that’s all I see.
Plastered along every wall,
is pictures of you and me.
Oh how i miss you.

It had been six months,
Since you left.
The pollen escaped the house,
the pictures came off the wall.
the bottles came out
And you’re still gone.
Oh how i wish you were here.

The bottles are in the trash but,
he is gone,
you are gone,
This family is gone.
Oh how I wish this family was still here.
