That Which Leaves Us Hollow

I was only a few years younger than thee
But you cared after, looked out for me
Potential you had was clear to see
A loving child who was always care free
When Tragedy strikes it tears you open
Leaving a scar on a family's generation
Always feared this day would come
When pain and anger combine as one, combine as one

What a lonely place this world's become
Never forgotten but always gone
In my mind your memories live on
When pain and anger combine as one
What a lonely place this world's become
Never forgotten but always gone
In my mind your memories live on
When pain and anger combine as one

But who'd thought it as a child growing up
You'd get such terrible luck
A life and soul never gave a fuck
The beginnings when tragedy first struck
When Tragedy strikes it tears you open
Leaving a scar on a generation
Always feared this day would come
When pain and anger combine as one

What a lonely place this world's become
Never forgotten but always gone
In my mind your memories live on
When pain and anger combine as one
What a lonely place this world's become
Never forgotten but always gone
In my mind your memories live on
When pain and anger combine as one

Words can't describe the trauma caused
World fell apart my heart was sore
I know you deserved so much more
Taken to young can't believe your gone
So fuck your god, go fuck your religion
What mighty power would create this condition
Fuck your bible with it's many contradictions
This holy shit just causes confusion

Never got to see the adult you'd be
I tried hard, hope your proud of me
You fought hard but eventually
Disease took away from my family

What a lonely place this world's become
Never forgotten but always gone
In my mind your memories live on
When pain and anger combine as one
What a lonely place this world's become
Never forgotten but always gone
In my mind your memories live on
When pain and anger combine as one
