| A summer night in Boise Idaho
|
| I wasn’t ready for the call that I received
|
| Little did I think or know, the heavy news that it would carry me
|
| Rage meets anger, while knuckles and tears, I am helpless, 2500 miles away
|
| Sitting underneath a street light, wondering if another angel got his wings
|
| Black birds swept down, they surrounded me
|
| Carefully they wrapped their dark wings all around me
|
| This song is for those dead and gone
|
| Its just another day, another funeral
|
| God knows that they’re never coming home
|
| Its just another day another funeral
|
| An Austin Texas morning, I wish I never woke up that sunny day
|
| Just found out about the lie, that was 24 long years in the making
|
| She was in and out of my life like a slow passing train
|
| I never got to say goodbye to the mother I barely knew was mine
|
| Black birds swept down they surrounded me
|
| Carefully they wrapped their dark wings all around me
|
| This song is for all those dead and gone
|
| And God knows they’re never coming home
|
| Another piece of me gone, I might as well join you all
|
| No… to many people need me here
|
| How many more friends will die this year?
|
| Nothing can prepare you for the loss of someone you love
|
| And when the thought of them gone, it numbs like a drug
|
| Take sanctuary in the arms of those you love
|
| No matter how bad you got, someone got it worse |
