Absence
Absence
I stare into the face of my brother
His features have faded into dust
He lies here now waiting for the darkness
Carrying the hopes and dreams we shared
He stood among the ravaged so courageous
His figure stoic and so brave
Cut down in shrouds of subtle irony
For years, I prayed that it had taken me
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
For reasons I have long since forgotten
I could never bear the thought of an end
Years have passed and still I wonder
If I had been the one, where would he be?
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
Through suffering and pain I've come to realise
Knowing all that I have survived
Only losses and complete destruction
Can release the demons that grow inside
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I have fallen in too deep
I stare into the face of my brother
His features have faded into dust
He lies here now waiting for the darkness
Carrying the hopes and dreams we shared
He stood among the ravaged so courageous
His figure stoic and so brave
Cut down in shrouds of subtle irony
For years, I prayed that it had taken me
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
For reasons I have long since forgotten
I could never bear the thought of an end
Years have passed and still I wonder
If I had been the one, where would he be?
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
Through suffering and pain I've come to realise
Knowing all that I have survived
Only losses and complete destruction
Can release the demons that grow inside
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I will never let this sleep
In the absence of a God
In the absence of belief
I will never let this go
I have fallen in too deep
