It was 5:59, I was working on my birthday list
Hungry sick and tired so I went inside and made a fit
Jody yelled to us, told us come down stairs we need to talk

Little did I know that my hole life was bout to fall apart

Jody looked at Tom and I, eyes were filled with tears he cried

Quivered mouth he tried to speak
Looked so crushed and seemed so weak
Never have I seen him cry

I knew something wasn't right
Then he said that Grammys gone
Man i wished that he was wrong


I hugged them as they cried and weeped
In denial, that was me

Told myself this isn't right
Believing it I seemed to fight
quickly ran right out the door

Had to see to be for sure
Mom said Chet please stay away
Told her let me see my gram


She said ok and let me see
Gram was stiff her skin was green

I then realized this was no dream and
It was Grammys time to leave
I looked at her and began to cry

Oh Grammy Grammy please don't die
Mom took me outside the room
Im Sorry hun it's Grammys time


Papa sat there next to her..
Grammy laying in the bed

He Told her that he loved her as his hand was pressed upon her head

He asked for time a alone with her

he had some things he had to say
I hugged him as I left and told him every thing will be ok
But deep inside I knew it won't

Losing gram is losing hope
Papa cried and kissed her cheek
As sad as he could ever be


I called my dad for comfort
Hoping maybe he could help

Hoping he'd relate and understand the pain in which I delt
He said "I'm sorry son that's tough
You know the road ahead is rough

But you'll move on as time goes on"
I gently put down the phone


I cried and cried and yelled to god
Screaming why'd you do this ugh
I thought that you were helping it

Bul all you do is jist rip it apart

I walked back to my Grammys house

To be with family help them out
We gathered by my Grammys bed
Papas hand still on her head

I tried to brush away the tears to show my Grampy I was here and show my strength and hide the fear
I love you papa I am here


I crawled in bed and tried to think
Open eyes I never blinked
Thinking bout the times we had

Slowly fell asleep so sad
Since the day you left our eyes
I thought about you every night

Saying gram I'll see you soon
Cried from 6am till noon
