Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You used to save the crusts for me

Cut my toast in tiny hearts

Laughed when I called the porch our stage

You knew my lines by heart

Then your eyes slid off my name

Like it slipped between the tiles

You asked me if we’d met before

I said

“Yeah… it’s been a while”

[Chorus]

Rest now

You’ve carried all my childhood in your hands

You called me by a nickname

Only you could understand

Rest now

If you don’t remember

I still do

So close your tired eyes

I’ll be the one holding you

[Verse 2]

Granddad with the coins up your sleeve

Magic from the Sunday chair

I’d laugh before the trick was done

You pretended not to care (oh)

Then the punchlines lost their steps

Jokes tripped over halfway through

You stared hard at my face and said

“You look… just like someone I knew”

[Chorus]

Rest now

You carried every story to the end

You taught me how to laugh at life

Then start again

My friend

Rest now

If you don’t remember

I still do

So let the daylight fade

I’ll be the one naming you

[Bridge]

I learned your recipes and riddles

Wrote your phrases in my phone

You forgot the way back home

But you built my only home

If your minds turned into winter

I’ll keep summers in my chest

You can lay your heavy years down

I’ll carry all the rest (yeah)

[Chorus]

Rest now

You don’t have to try to stay

Every piece of you that’s missing

Lives inside me anyway

Rest now

If you don’t remember

I still do

So go where you can finally breathe

I’ll go there when my time is through

[Outro]

Rest now

You can let the picture fade

I’ll color in the empty space

With every word you ever said

Rest now

You can let the curtain fall

I’ll whisper who I am to you

Until I don’t need words at all

Prompt

Female, emo, pop. A song to my dead grandparents on my dad’s side. My kind and doting grandmother. My funny grandfather. They loved and doted on me and I had to watch them forget who I was. Rest now
