Elegy
You never bent, you always stoodCould plainly tell the trees from woodYou knew to part the wrong from rightTo coax the darkness into light
You took me in when hope was lostYou paid with no regard for costYou gave your time, you always foundA way to keep my feet on the ground
You never broke, you always healedAnd favored need above appealYou came, you saw, you mended foesAn altruistic dynamo
Now this endless elegyIt sings to youMy tormented memoryIt yearns for
You never sold what can't be boughtYour majesty just can't be taughtYou always stood on moral groundProvided hope when none was found
You always gave with pure intentRegardless of the money spentYou propped me up on broken feetAnd spread my wings so they could beat
And now this endless elegyIt breaks my heartYour eternal memoryTears me apart
In your mourningFeel my wind blowing downMy love shinesThrough the light of your darkness
And now this endless elegyIt praises you, it sings for youNever ending memoryIt yearns for you, it lives for you
You soldier on, you don't give inKeep pushing water up a hillYou brought this heart back from the brinkAnd gave this thirsty soul a drink
From dust to dust, we live, we dieBefore we've grown we're out of timeAnd now you're gone while justice criesI bury you with no goodbyes
God has let you downGod has let you down
God has let you downAnd now this endless elegyGod has let you downNever ending memory
And now this endless elegyYour eternal memory
