I'd been ground bound
2066
01:20:17,379 --> 01:20:21,183
because she left Earth to go
back home amongst the stars
2067
01:20:21,216 --> 01:20:23,185
right next to God,
but I was left here
2068
01:20:23,218 --> 01:20:26,355
to manufacture wings
out of tears and broken dreams,
2069
01:20:26,388 --> 01:20:28,190
yet I'm still haunted
by these nightmares
2070
01:20:28,223 --> 01:20:31,026
'cause I have
a really creative mind,
2071
01:20:31,060 --> 01:20:33,696
and sometimes it designs
these alternate realities
2072
01:20:33,729 --> 01:20:36,498
where she is still here,
still alive,
2073
01:20:36,532 --> 01:20:38,634
and all the things
I wish we could've done
2074
01:20:38,667 --> 01:20:41,537
are played again and again
and again,
2075
01:20:41,570 --> 01:20:44,273
and I'm tired of playing God
'cause I gotta come to terms
2076
01:20:44,306 --> 01:20:46,775
with the fact that my sister
ain't never coming back.
2077
01:20:49,011 --> 01:20:51,413
And that's the cost of love‐‐
2078
01:20:51,447 --> 01:20:54,249
caring for someone so much
that you can't imagine
2079
01:20:54,283 --> 01:20:56,118
living life without them.
2080
01:20:56,151 --> 01:20:58,454
Staring at a grave like,
2081
01:20:58,487 --> 01:21:00,723
how about I trade
my six feet for yours?
2082
01:21:00,756 --> 01:21:01,790
But that's not real.
2083
01:21:03,258 --> 01:21:06,595
And I know I said earlier
to hold onto love loosely
2084
01:21:06,628 --> 01:21:09,164
so when it leaves,
it won't exit so painfully,
2085
01:21:09,198 --> 01:21:12,134
but if this pain
and these memories
2086
01:21:12,167 --> 01:21:14,536
are all that I got left of you,
