In Heaven

The older I get
The wiser I’ve got
But I can never let it go
It’s just too much to give up

But for millions
I’d give it away
And never look back
I’m not the only one;
I know I’m not the only one

Days and nights fly by,
Not enough time
But a pile of faint memories
Still grow in the back of my mind;
They grow in back of my mind
To remind of the miles you never got to travel

Into heaven, you’ve made your way
Back on this world, I’ll finish my life
To join you one day soon;
But the writing on the walls
Tells the story all over

In your wheelchair,
The dust collects,
Each fiber covers a piece
Of the miserable fight
That was lost
And I continue to grieve

In heaven, we’ll meet again
And I won’t even care why
It happened the way it did;
Your hair in the brick,
Blood on the floor,
Screams at the top of the lungs

In heaven, I won’t
Hear the wheezing in your throat;
The depression is defeated,
And only you know when
I’ll see you again.
