The Endless

A summer night in Boise Idaho
 I wasn't ready for the call that I received
 Little did I think or know, the heavy news that it would carry me
 Rage meets anger, while knuckles and tears, I am helpless, 2500 miles away
 Sitting underneath a street light, wondering if another angel got his wings
 Black birds swept down, they surrounded me
 Carefully they wrapped their dark wings all around me
 This song is for those dead and gone
 Its just another day, another funeral
 God knows that they're never coming home
 Its just another day another funeral
 An Austin Texas morning, I wish I never woke up that sunny day
 Just found out about the lie, that was 24 long years in the making
 She was in and out of my life like a slow passing train
 I never got to say goodbye to the mother I barely knew was mine
 Black birds swept down they surrounded me,
 Carefully they wrapped their dark wings all around me
 This song is for all those dead and gone
 And God knows they're never coming home
 Another piece of me gone, I might as well join you all
 No... to many people need me here
 How many more friends will die this year?
 Nothing can prepare you for the loss of someone you love.
 And when the thought of them gone, it numbs like a drug
 Take sanctuary in the arms of those you love
 No matter how bad you got, someone got it worse.
