3:30 am, I hear a cry, My sisters had a bad dream. I can't help but wonder why. Yes, it was a nightmare But not of the dream sort, This one was reality, Though I wish it were not. Another young life taken away, The sadness fills my heart, Such a waste of someone's life, A family torn apart. 4:47 we sit together, Looking at the light Of a house that's lost a son, a brother On this awful night. The town once more faces tragedy, But it's strength will never cease, We'll stick together to get through it all, Jordan, rest in peace.

Nightmare
3:30 am, I hear a cry, My sisters had a bad dream. I can't help but wonder why. Yes, it was a nightmare But not of the dream sort, This one was reality, Though I wish it were not. Another young life taken away, The sadness fills my heart, Such a waste of someone's life, A family torn apart. 4:47 we sit together, Looking at the light Of a house that's lost a son, a brother On this awful night. The town once more faces tragedy, But it's strength will never cease, We'll stick together to get through it all, Jordan, rest in peace.
