I knew this because as I drove, the hole that was me and my life

fold your arms like an aeroplane 
cast over seas you could not navigate 
for fear of an entry point 

dear, do not go quietly! 
do not go, do not go at all! 
(you are needed here) 

you were strong 
but your body wasn't 

and even if i know 
it'll still hurt to hear it from you 

so when you go 
your arms will not part the sea 
or even support their own weight 

but it is time 
(and even i know!) 

but it will still hurt like [bad word] when you go
