There Goes a Legend
I have inherited what you left behind
Your gift sadly but gratefully received
Live on within me, dormant, silent mind
Often I cried out to you, in need
Never heard again, unanswered
The distance in time is like a million light years
Fading in the memory, yet, a blistering star
Lumination, the imaginative path of fears
We miss you
We tip our hats to you
We'll never forget you
We'll spill our drinks for you
You taught us a valuable lesson
You forced us to think again
There they go, there goes a legend
I was lost and strayed
If only you could see that I am lost no longer
A father, a brother, a mentor, one true friend
Your guidance the gift that made me stronger
Courage through conviction
Strength through character, chivalry and valour
Without you I would have scorched my life and my liberty
Faith in humanity near vanquished
We miss you
We tip our hats to you
We'll never forget you
We'll spill our drinks for you
You taught us a valuable lesson
You forced us to think again
There they go, there goes a
Staring down the rabbit hole, my life is now this
Staring down a wishing well and seeing the abyss
So much to do, see and share, what's the point of breathing
Or believing in something, my mind is seething
Watch me fall from lifes sweetest grace, to a pit of disgrace
To a black and empty space
Black empty space
Legend
Can you see who has made it here today?
Or is death as final as it feels
So many here, not all will pass the doors
If you had to know, would you appeal
To a saner, kinder you
One day we will know
If we were kind enough
While you were below
Haunted by life
You have vanished but haunt us that remain
Baffled, guilty and hurt
In ignorance, feeling your pain
Today is the day
When the most to have ever loved you are all in one place
You fucking legend
We miss you
We tip our hats to you
We'll never forget you
We'll spill our drinks for you
You taught us a valuable lesson
You forced us to think again
There they go, there goes a legend
Your gift sadly but gratefully received
Live on within me, dormant, silent mind
Often I cried out to you, in need
Never heard again, unanswered
The distance in time is like a million light years
Fading in the memory, yet, a blistering star
Lumination, the imaginative path of fears
We miss you
We tip our hats to you
We'll never forget you
We'll spill our drinks for you
You taught us a valuable lesson
You forced us to think again
There they go, there goes a legend
I was lost and strayed
If only you could see that I am lost no longer
A father, a brother, a mentor, one true friend
Your guidance the gift that made me stronger
Courage through conviction
Strength through character, chivalry and valour
Without you I would have scorched my life and my liberty
Faith in humanity near vanquished
We miss you
We tip our hats to you
We'll never forget you
We'll spill our drinks for you
You taught us a valuable lesson
You forced us to think again
