[Verse]
You fought your demons night and day
Kept the shadows at bay
But victory came with a twist
Gone before our morning kiss
[Verse 2]
Sixteen years that's all we had
Time flew fast but moments clad
In memories I keep so tight
You left just when we found the light
[Chorus]
Goodbye at sixteen feels so cruel
Life's a harsh unfeeling tool
You beat the odds then slipped away
Now I face the night and gray
[Verse 3]
Needed your wisdom and your grace
Now I search an empty space
Found your strength but not the why
To understand before goodbye
[Bridge]
Every tear I shed's for you
Every heartbeat echoes through
You were my hero in the end
A mom a fighter a lost friend
[Chorus]
Goodbye at sixteen feels so cruel
Life's a harsh unfeeling tool
You beat the odds then slipped away
Now I face the night and gray
