Rest In Peace,I Hope the Pain Is Forever Gone/To George

Tuesday night you're gone

you've taken your life away

the pains you've held can never in truth be known

we are all of no clue...no path

you we're young and in search of sleep

this Wednesday morning was especially cold and i didn't know why until I've heard of your
decision

the tears of those who loved you covered hallways within the school...there lies a river
of confusion, a river of pain

I find myself wishing that we were closer George...maybe something could have been
done...anything

Pains you've dealt with may be kin to similar pains of mine
Though there is no kinship in result

You will be missed Mr.Swain
