If I'm not here when you need me most
You're chasing this ghost-like I use to
When you're scared cause it's always almost
Then I wrote it down how to go through

Life like you're living the most
Just in case I can't be as close

Hug your mother like she's gonna cry if you don't
Love your sister and brother
Even when you think they won't love you back
This is advice that I leave in this note
This is life and we don't make it out alive
So love

When the world brings us down to our knees
And everything shattered and bleeding
And they're loud although no one will speak
Cause everything broken needs healing

Love like you're living the most
Just in case I can't be as close

Hug your mother like she's gonna cry if you don't
Love your sister and brother
Even when you think they won't love you back
This is advice that I leave in this note
This is life and we don't make it out alive
So love and be loved

You should know that you're worth it
And I know this feels close
But you've never been hopeless
And I've never seen so much good in one person
You will never be alone

So hug your mother like she's gonna cry if you don't
Love your sister and brother
Even when you think they won't love you back
This is advice that I leave in this note
This is life and we don't make it out

So hug your mother like she's gonna cry if you don't
Love your sister and brother
Even when you think they won't love you back
This is advice that I leave in this note
This is life and we don't make it out alive
So love
