I thought I was Prepared

I wasn't there when she passed away
Just got a phone call from my mother
She'll never know how much I loved her
It's probably better in a way
Her hospital room was never empty
Her friends visited as much as they could
When you looked at us I understood
Images that will always comfort me
I hope there's a place high above
Where angels take care of you
I hope you're feeling loved
Until I drop my very last tear
Trying to keep things together
I thought I was prepared but I wasn't

We were both under the same sky
I had fire in my eyes
After winter must come spring
You can’t say I didn’t try
Who’ve seen a flame that never dies?
It hurt but I didn’t say anything
You can call me a coward
You can call me whatever you want
In fact, I couldn’t care less
May the road rise to leave you
I’m not in your heart
And you’ll never be in mine
You’ve chosen your way
And I’ve chosen mine
The days were becoming longer
Dark circles under my eyes
I was wrong, winter never ends
You can’t say I didn’t try
Who’ve seen a flame that never dies?
It hurt and I had to say something
You can call me a coward
You can call me whatever you want
In fact, I couldn’t care less
May the road rise to leave you
I’m not in your heart
And you’ll never be in mine
You’ve chosen your way
And I’ve chosen mine
I felt stuck
Had no time for myself

« After singing and playing in multiple punk rock bands, I
wanted to express myself, alone, how I felt, my political ideas, my disappointments in life. Most of the themes evoked in my songs are very personnal, and I couldn’t allow someone else to say these words, or to define the melody. I wanted to be able to play it as if we were talking, evrywhere."
