November tenth a cold dark night
You could feel that something wasn’t right
That night many hearts did cry
When we learned we had to say goodbye
All embraced under one common song that the body is dead but life lives on
Goodbye Steve, Goodbye true friend
You were so young
The cars lined the streets as it was coming to an end
The sun shined so brightly the day we buried our friend
All embraced under one common song that the body is dead but life lives on
Goodbye Steve, Goodbye true friend
You were so young
Losing in fall lost innocence came down
An eighteen year old boy was buried in the ground
A families broken heart, a friends streaming tears
The life lost in death and the living's growing fears
Of eternal darkness or spiritual light
To come to terms with death on the darkest night
A brother lost a brother, a friend lost a friend
A mother lost a son but Steven's will never end
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
