anonymous Jan 15th 2017 !⃝imo this is about someone who regret a personal decision that made him/her leave his/her friends.
"So long to all my friends, every one of them met tragic ends"
"We'll say goodbye today and i'm sorry how it ends this way"
And in that time of regret, he/she misses them more than he/she thought
"With every passing day, I'd be lying if I didn't say that I miss them all tonight"
He/she would give anything to be with them again happily and tell them not to let anyone ruin their happiness. His/her heartfelt longing for their friendship to be the same as it was back then can be felt everytime the chorus repeats.
"If I could be with you tonight, I would sing you to sleep, never let them take the light behind your eyes"
Since his/her decision is irrevokable, he/she expresses that he/she may not last longer due to the regret or might commit suicide because of it as well, though he/she wanted them to stay strong as time goes by without him/her and maybe one day in the afterlife, they could reunite and be happy again
"Be strong and hold my hand, time; it comes for us, you'll understand"
"One day, I'll lose this fight. As we fade in the dark, just remember you will always burn as bright"
Here, he/she convinces them that they can grow stronger even in his/her absence, not wanting them to linger in the broken remnants of their friendship but rather let it leave a mark for them to grow strong
"Sometimes we must grow stronger and you can't be stronger in the dark (or 'you can be stronger when i'm gone')"
"When I'm here no longer, you must be stronger"
//note: based off of personal experience.. and i also always wanted to sing this to the person i used to call my best(est) friend but she's in the group of best friends i left for personal reasons.. I hope they're doing well..
