Halo

To the friend I never knew in the dark in the room
Are you afraid the light will come and take you away
Do you dream of all the things you've seen
Or all the silly lines between
The right or wrong or the dark or the day

Did you see the rain come down so hard
Hard enough to break the ground
Soft enough to kiss a flowered grave
Do you think the world will change it's mind
And not let all the mangled drive
Before they got a chance to swim and ride

Did you forget the face of angels and the blue in the sky
Where the river meet's the Halo's and the winter on the road they never die

All the word's I didn't say before
Keys and broken locks to doors
You tried to turn oh when the house burned down
Then in the smoke you made a face
'Coz you still have that old suitcase
Of memories oh before you lost your mind

Did you forget the screams of mothers with their hands held high
Where the colors meet the rainbows and the oceans
To the row they say goodbye

Did you forget the tears of lightning crashing through without a sound
When the battered meet the blacklights and the winter
On the road they never die
They never die
They never die
They never die
