19 Year's One Regret
The river ran so cold
19 years and nobody to celebrate
Blue eyes and brown hair
Buried beneath the darker ground
Silent wishes I could hear them
Whispers, shouts, doesn't matter what I do
You won't return
Life was short
19 years and nobody to celebrate

Wanting to scream
To tell them where to get off

I saw you lie there
I was angry
Now you're gone, never to return again
I don't know what happened
I never will
A teardrop fell from my face
I watched it fall into my skin, like you fell into the ground
The river ran so cold
One year and nobody cares
19 years and nobody to celebrate
Blue eyes and brown hair
Buried beneath the darker ground
The darker ground
Will stay.

Out of energy and out of fight
Through his eyes I see his soul
An empty void, a cold
by Tom Mcmurray
The cold and lonely wasted worn
forgotten urchins of the night,
now suffer spiteful, hurtful scorn;
still punished for their
