We're sorry that we couldn't save you,
We're sorry that it had its hold
We tried hard to just rip You from it
But that dream was just how it rolled.
That darkness was 'oh so' relentless
It dragged you right down to the core
And you couldn't see past the demons
That kept pulling you more and more
It blinded your eyes with such heartache
it stole all of your soul's dignity
Pretendng that it was your saviour
When you just wanted to be free
Free from that pain and destruction
But it kept you far and away
Controlled all of your thoughts and emotions
That's why we are here today.
