A Distant Brother

This is not the end of us...

And all this time

the angels will find themselves between the living and the dead.

And during this time

We will look back and find your words still echo in our minds...

In our separate places

A wind of bad news spreads.

Like a disease

It consumes me.

Take this message

And know that in

Any given moment

All can be lost...

All can be lost...

This can't be happening...

This can't be the end...

This is the end.

Take this message and know that in

Any given moment we'll be lost within.

Brothers, this night has brought a tragedy,

Hold this in your thoughts

And raise our brothers up;

This is not the end but a moment

For growth and reflection.

We saw you standing and couldn't leave...

Brothers we've become until the end of time

For

Tragedy in the night

Stills this heartbeat...

feeling the effects of your destiny.

On to better things departing in the night,

Spread out your wings,

Take your last flight.

We wish you were here,

It's so hard to accept

The hugs and tears of fear

when your body's all that's left.

Your spirit is at peace;

Now you are at rest.

We'll think of you

When we confront

Whatever happens next...

We won't forget,

We always will miss you.

Will move on,

We always will miss you.

We will have hope,

We always will miss you.

And in our hearts,

We will honor you...

This wind spreads like a disease...

This wind of bad news spreads like a disease;

No it can't be true...

We saw you standing and we could not believe the family we'd become.

And as brothers we stand gathered among these leaves.

This moment in space and time won't soon be forgotten,

No we won't be broken... No we will not...

Until the end of time
