Zacky

I new you so well 
but i cared not 
that last time i saw you
is always in my thoughts

people never understood you 
your parents never cared
she thought she loved you
i wasn't aware

we all tried to change you
we all dissaproved
i guess we didn't wanna hear 
that you did not like this 
just like we didn't like your hair

but your passing has led us 
down a long road of dispare
and our teachers hear us 
wonder why your not here 

it was hard to adjust 
then we noticed this was gods plan
it was his will that you passed on
and we all repent

you helped my faith be restored
you helped me see
that the path i was headed down 
was the one i didn't need

now my life is happy
although we miss you dear 
i wake up in the mornings
and the pain is no longer there

we all cried buckets 
we all lost a part of us
but i got back my fear
