about

This song is dedicated to mom, dad, dan and dave. I look forward to the day I get to reunite you. In the meantime I promise to live life to the fullest like each of you! Love ya forever!

lyrics

They’re dying in the streets

of my mind that is reeling

The walls are collapsing 

in my heart that is beating

Through the photos of the ghosts

that are taped to my ceiling



And I won’t be forgetting
 

all the crazy mad feelings

The spinning and the whirling

the living and the breathing



Won’t bring you back
No it won’t bring you back




Like the time that is fleeting

and the stories that are ending

Once your gone, your gone

there ain’t no coming back

Like the ripples on the water

and the clouds passing by


Complex as the spectrum

of the sun up in the sky

We dance around fires 

and cry out our eyes


And it won’t bring you back
No it won’t bring you back





Maybe one day I’ll discover the things I’ve been told

That you surround us and will always be there

But today I just feel cold

Your presence, the memories, the strength, the bond


All I know is today....you’re gone,
you’re gone

and you’re not coming back

Will you ever come back?
