The Words We Don'T Want To Hear
Many days we're caught with glorious demeanor
Other ones we just don't remember
The people and places are always the same
We go through life like it's a game
Then we're told, "This could be the end!"
To be strong we can only just pretend
Now stuck in this big gap
Not at all sure where the end is at
Any day could be our very last
So we're Happy for the days we do get past
People visit but just sit and stare
Talking away like we're not even there
Not even thinking that we hear it all
With each word death seems to call
But please don't be sad once we're gone
With your memories we'll still carry on
So keep us in your thoughts each day
Then with you we will always stay
Because a part of us you will be
Even when our body you no longer see
The end is not much different then the start
If our Love's is still in your heart
Yes you can hang your head and cry
But please my friend don't ever say , " Good Bye !"
Just keep us very much alive
Because through you we will survive!
