From the recording West Coast Diaries

Lyrics

You called your granddad on his birthday
Such a normal thing to do
Like you knew family still mattered
In spite of what you were going through

How bad does the pain have to be
For it to be the only thing you see?
Not the love of your family
Or your bright life ahead?

I know you never meant to hurt us
And this wasn’t for revenge
Some deep darkness down inside you
Was telling you it had to end

How bad does the pain have to be
For it to be the only thing you see?
Not the love of your family
Or your bright life ahead?

How’s it possible that such a beautiful girl
Can’t see her beauty reflected in the world?
How’s it possible that such a beautiful girl
Can’t see her beauty reflected in the world?

So now your pain has finally ended
And ours just starting to begin
A tiny stab for every memory
But a smile for every pic you’re in

Yeah, your story hasn’t ended
And your light will always shine
You will always be remembered
As a Robin bringing us springtime

How bad does the pain have to be
For it to be the only thing you see?
Not the love of your family
Or your bright life ahead?
Or your bright life ahead?

You called your granddad on his birthday
Such a normal thing to do
