lyrics

"Where did we go wrong?" - they said
Crying on my shoulder
Another page to turn
In a book they can't close yet

"And what did he do wrong?" - they asked
"Tell us about her"

I turned to them
Embraced their bodies
'Cause I'm so fouly
I'll never forget his pain

How to explain
It's all in vain
Can't help but think we're all to blame

He was so blind
He couldn't follow the line
Except the ones Which reached his mind

Never wanted him
To go the wrong way
To live and die in misery

We never spoke
He's now forgotten
No words can save my friend - as he embraces the immense
Fading darkness

Every night
He took his flight
Dancing with demons
'Till the sunrise

But on this day
You lay away
A stiff carcass and your soul fades

We watch his coffin
We stand and stare
Hoping that he knows that we cared

Why did he play
He chose the way
Skipping his dreams to fall from grace

We never spoke
He's now forgotten
No words can save my friend - as he embraces the immense
Fading darkness

And now we remember
In calm nights
They way you used
To joke and smile

Our minds reach high
To grab your soul
To speak to you for one last time

In the finite road of life
Some still run and some are tired

Give us strengh during the ride
Don't let us fall by your side
