Heaven
Even though you're gone,
you're still with me here.
Forever I await you, silent in tears.
Breathing is like bleeding the pain of my soul,
finding my way back to the path
is like finding the light
and you're guiding me safely home.
Damned to eternal battle,
you had the will, but lost the fight.
Goodbye is now forever,
and not just for the night.
If I reach Heaven will I find you there?
My question lingers in the cold and hollow cemetery air.
Frozen you lie at my feet,
your stone glints in the forsaken moonlight,
petrified by the sorrow that consumes me,
I cannot find the strength to leave.
Give me an answer so that I will be satisfied...
You lie so silent,
and so the memories I have left of you
slowly rewind in my grieving mind.
If I reach Heaven will I find you there?
