Running from the past
Wishing in my heart
That the pain will be over fast

Tears fall down my cheek
A waterfall of hate
In myself from what I did
And knowing I'm far too late

I can't be a hero
But I hate to see you go
I tried to save you
But I am far too slow

The rapid grip of death
Held you in its grasp
No matter how hard I tried
I couldn't undo that clasp

Now I sit here thinking
Of all the times we've shared
All the moments we spent
Telling each other how much we cared

How do I live without you
I need you to come back
Protect me from all the pain
My strength has begun to lack

I miss you more than ever now
And I can't believe you're not here
To help me walk this road
That now alone I fear

I don't want to live
Without you by my side
With me and protecting me
Always helping guide

But I have to face the truth
You will not return
Our past is turned to ash
As in the fire it will burn

Goodbye I miss you
You'll always be in my heart
Death is the evil
That tore us apart

Hiding in the shadows
Running from the past
Wishing in my heart
That the pain will be over fast

Tears fall down my cheek
A waterfall of hate
In myself from what I did
And knowing I'm far too late

I can't be a hero
But I hate to see you go
I tried to save you
But I am far too slow

The rapid grip of death
Held you in its grasp
No matter how hard I tried
I couldn't undo that clasp

Now I sit here thinking
Of all the times we've shared

And I can't believe you're not here

But I have to face the truth
You will not return
Our past is turned to ash
As in the fire it will burn

Goodbye I miss you
You'll always be in my heart
Death is the evil
That tore us apart
