You were in the hospital for weeks.
When the news spread it hurt us down deep.
All the families from everywhere
All came to stop and stare
At what is now to be our beloved
The angel that was sent from up above
He had a wife and 2 kids
To give up they forbid
He also had a sickness that would not fail
The sad part is he didn't live to tell the tale
Some days he wasn't comprehending
But today I am wondering if the world is ending
Because all my loved ones are being taken
All the good people if I'm not mistaken
Well he had to spread his wings to fly away
Well I guess its good-bye for now, till another day

It's funny how people dreams come true
A perfect life as god drew
For you
But people forget
That nightmares are dreams to
who knew
God drew those two

From east to west
I've seen the best
Moss on a stone
Contacts on my phone

I’ve met friends
Knowing it all ends
Moving
Proving

That I can restart
But keeping the one that's in my heart
She will always be there
A coat my heart wears

For when it gets cold
In this void
She will be there
To warm the air

Help me understand
This lonely land
That i stand in
Or where i been

Help me speak
I'm to weak
To tell my pains
The fight against these chains

Help me see
The life locked with a key
To remember my mistakes
Mostly heartbreaks

Help me pass
Lay me on the soft grass
Peacefully gone
Into the new dawn

How did I fall in love with an angel
So bright so pure
To think I’m Jack to your Jill
My only cure

You are my star in the sky
My moon light when it's dark
My pillow when i cry
My slide in a park

I love you Sara’Ann
I can’t really explain
I’m your biggest fan
Even when i was in pain

I'll be by your side
Through thick and thin
Even if i died
I will always lift your chin

You're the love of my life
My best friend
And soon to be wife
Until the end

As my mind spins around
I feel six feet underground
A noose around my throat
A fall in the water wish I brung my coat
A car crash where I die
But to afraid to say goodbye
The feeling of being numb
As I see death come
I turn away
To go with him another day
Then wondering when
As I walk back to where I have been
As my life goes on
I will sit here at dawn
Wishing to fall
Or get a life saving phone call
See I won't die
Or say goodbye
But everyday I get closer to death
Because I'm not scared of taking my last breath

The Winds roar past my ears
Taking away my fears
Looking out from the hill
waiting for it to fill
with men and steel
nothing can explain what I feel

The water swirl
as fingers curl
turning into fists that protest death
wanting to fight for this earth
Fears in the eyes of those men
while multiplying it by ten

blood starts to flow
bombs start to blow
men fall dead
no one was left
life was taken in a theft
