When we first met,
it completely changed my mind.
Everything I was working on
seemed completely wrong.
The sparkle in your eyes was blinding,
so much brighter than mine.
I knew you had it up on me,
and you had nothing but time.
Then God took it all away.
I will never step aside.
I will never give up.
You never got your chance,
so I’ll do this for the both of us.
Don’t you worry, Cupcake.
I’ve taken on your cause.
You never got your chance,
so I’ll do this for the both of us.
Maybe if I’d picked my demon,
this one wouldn’t want you.
Maybe if I’d been more human,
I’d have known what to do.
Even though your time was fleeting,
hours or maybe a day,
you had seen the life you wanted.
You knew what you wanted to say.
Then God took it all away.
I will never step aside.
I will never give up.
You never got your chance,
so I’ll do this for the both of us.
Don’t you worry, Cupcake,
I’ve taken on your cause.
You never got your chance,
so I’ll do this for the both of us.
