Has it really been twenty years Since we last laughed and hid the tears? Behind my smile you saw the lie As I pretended not to cry I acted brave but you acted tougher Why is it always the good ones who suffer? When the end came we weren't prepared Ignoring the obvious because we were scared By the time I realized Your Spirit was being absorbed You'd made that final journey beneath Orion's Sword |
