They say it's in the past...drop it...let it go...
I see it in my mind...it breaks my heart...it's burned into my soul...
They say it's in the past....drop it...let it go....
I remember you crying....her screaming...me screaming..
complete silence...filled the room...shock and anger took control...
To heaven God took your soul...darkness then took all......
They say it's in the past....drop it....let it go...
The sound of his heartbeat...the sound of him breathing..his arms wrapped around me...
I felt at peace...I felt safe...I felt whole....
I sat upon his knee....tears ran down his face..his words to her...
She's gone....it's in the past...drop it....
let it go...
He screamed...Mommy don't make Daddy cry...with fear in his voice and pain....head to toe.
She struck his face...yelled...drop it...let it go...
He ran from the room...she left the room...slamming doors echo...
I looked at him....crying...unable to stop his tears..to end his pain....
He wiped his eyes..and spoke to me..his words added to my pain...
She will never be the same...I can't handle it...she won't drop it....she won't let it go...
He stood...his arms engulfed me...he was now in control..
He said...I love you... forgive me.... remember me.....I have to go...
Alone in a room...with memories of you...and of him....
In my head it echos....it's in the past....drop it....let it go..I can't handle it...she won't drop it...she won't let it go..I love you.. I have to go...
They say it's in the past...drop it...let it go...But how do you do that when you were too young to say I love you..when God took your soul...
They say it's in the past...drop it...let it go..but how do you do that when you should have said Daddy please don't go..
They say it's in the past...drop it ...let it go...
But how do you do that when confusion...anger...pain..still fill your soul...
Oh how I want to drop it...I want to let go...
I want to let it go...
