Young & Undeserving

(album: Slave To Nothing - 2014)

You took him away without a trace or tear.
Erased from the story.
Hate fills these bloodshot eyes.
He was gone with no warning.
I cry for peace, but none is lent to me.
I pray for relief, just pull me closer, please let me sleep.

Only in dreams, so blindly you follow.
Only in death, we come to amends.
This bitter pill I'm left here to swallow,
or will I see you in the end?

Why won't you answer me?
Have you turned your face away?
Answer me.
Is it heaven or hell; where will he stay?
I've been wondering where he went
and how a good man lives to die.
Desperate to hear your voice of reason.
Speak up.
Speak up and let him sleep.

Only in dreams, so blindly you follow.
Only in death, we come to amends.
This bitter pill I'm left here to swallow,
or will I see you in the end?

Give me a reason. (Why you took my friend.)
Was it because he lost his way? (I'll only know in the end.)
I just need to know why I'm lost on the inside.
Replace the happiness that left this empty heart.
Erase the death that now haunts my every thought.
Erase the death. Let him walk the earth again.

Only in dreams, so blindly you follow.
Only in death, we come to amends.
This bitter pill I'm left here to swallow,
or will I see you in the end?
