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
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
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.
