Ali

Ali
You know our hearts were at their fullest
Ali
There were no words to stop the bullets

Concrete dreams, I could never leave
I go back to when we were thirteen and fifteen and seventeen
Fall nights with the coldest breeze
All that we hoped to be
When you smiled with all your teeth

Ali
You know our hearts were at their fullest
Ali
There were no words to stop the bullets

You should've left your home
I told you to go
I told you it wouldn't be safe
I told you it wasn't the way
You should've left your home
I told you to go
I told you it wouldn't be safe
Oh, how I prayed and I prayed

And since the angel was at your door
I can't walk by anymore
You slipped through my arms
I see you on your sister's shirt
And it's hard to mask the hurt
And it's hard to mask your worth

Ali
You know our hearts were at their fullest
Ali
There were no words to stop the bullets

Now it's only me that needs to save himself
Feel like I can't be here while you're in that realm
Oh, I need time
Oh, I need time
Oh, I need time to mourn you
Time to mourn you (Ali)
