Eiley Lyrics - Too Close To Touch

How can you say this was all part of your plan 

Start explaining 

Crafted from hope and hospital beds, she's gone 

And honestly 

You fed a dose of comatose to what I love most 

Death is not a game with the ones I hold close 

She was mine, mine, you can't deny 

Three years is too quick to die 

Take me instead, you only loved, I only consume 

I'm worthless to the world, you're innocent and pure 

God, why didn't you choose me over her? 

Tell me she's listening as I search for signs 

Of why I'm standing 

Left with this hole, that six feet of dirt can't fill 

So why don't you 

Just look me in the eyes. Say it straight to my face 

What type of man takes a girl from her place 

She was mine, mine, you can't deny 

Three years is too quick to die 

Take me instead, you only loved, I only consume 

I'm worthless to the world, you're innocent and pure 

God, why didn't you choose me? 

Take me instead, you only loved, I only consume 

I'm worthless to the world, you're innocent and pure 

God, why didn't you choose me over her? 

So answer me, how am I supposed to deal with this 

Why did she die, when I'm the one deserving it 

And what the hell am I to tell my little sisters 

To ease their tears when they tell me that they miss her 

And what about my mother and my father 

They lost a child and deep inside they whither 

God, I'd do anything to ease the pain 

That ripped through the chest of my brothers that day 

She was mine, she was mine 

What did we do to make you take her from our lives? 

She was mine, she was mine 

Oh God, oh what did we do? 

Take me instead, you only loved, I only consume 

I'm worthless to the world, you're innocent and pure 

God, why didn't you choose me? 

Take me instead, you only loved, I only consume 

I'm worthless to the world, you're innocent and pure 

God I question your judgment 

You're innocent and pure, I'm worthless to the world 

Tell me why you picked me over her
