lyrics

I didn't cry when grammy died
though she took care of me as a child
a loss of many
while they've grown to be a man

She fought the cancer in her leg
but there are times it just fights back
and that's the end
for 9.7 out of 10

Said "I don't think you'll be okay
no you'll feel great, and I mean great"
but I don't know
I guess she knew that she was done

And it still hasn't dawned on me
times were very few when I visited you at the cemetery
and yes when I say few times I mean pretty close to none

And you know that you have changed
when it's for family then it's not for fun

Sentimental minds, how bout less cryin
Uncanny likeness to a child
whose mom's a moment out of sight

Except that she's never coming back
or sneaking up for fun, instead
just went out like a candle
so I will go out with her in mind
