I, The Writer Chin Up lyrics

You went away on my brother's birthday,
It left a hole in my soul too deep,
This was the day the walls decided to cave in,
Protect me from my own insanity.

Put a gun to the back of my head,
Just give me something to feel real,
Hear my sorry thoughts,
The wolves are back at my door.

We were both serving time,
Just of different kinds,
It just isn't the same,
Two years caused so much pain,
Where were you when I needed you the most?
But if life is a game,
What difference does it make?

When you went away,
Even on the surface,

It was hard on all of us,
I tried to stay strong,
Remember when you called me on the phone,
What did you say to me?
Keep your chin up son,
Just keep it up.

Chin up,
I can move on.

I tried so hard not to cry,
But something broke inside.

We can move on with this life.
Chin up,
We will move on and up.
