I try but still I cry
I can only think of you
You're gone it's not been long
And oh how I miss you
Long ago you made me whole
You gave me life on Earth
I can't repay all you have gave
To me ever since my birth
Goddamned I try to make it
Through each new lonely day
One minute I curse the sky
The next I kneel and pray
Never understand the reason
It had to be this way
Why he had to go
And I was left to stay
At night I sit and cry
Why did he have to die?
To be taken this way
Should not have been his fate
But I know my hero lives
He will never be replaced
And somewhere in time
I wait to see his face
Now you're gone I must go on
My hero through and through
Made me strong taught me right from wrong
In your name I'll stay true
Murder only took away
This mortal life from you
I'll rest my head and when I'm dead
Again I will see you
Why does darkness follow me?
And why did it touch you?
I deserved this so much more
For some things I used to do
Could I have saved your life?
Or would I be with you?
We'll never know that's how it goes
I'm left to wallow through
At night I sit and cry
Why did he have to die?
To be taken this way
Should not have been his fate
But I know my hero lives
He will never be replaced
And somewhere in time
I wait to see his face
At night I sit and cry
Why did he have to die?
To be taken this way
Should not have been his fate
But I know my hero lives
He will never be replaced
And somewhere in time
I wait to see his face
