Wish You Were Here - My Heart to Fear

I remember the day

I carried my best friend to his grave

I put him back down into the earth

Into the soil from which we came

I never felt pain like this before

I never felt pain like this before

Have you ever wrapped your arms around the grave

Of a father who lost the son of his dreams

Life comes fast

But death comes faster

Any moment we could stand

Face to face with our master

This is nothing new

To all who breathe the same air

Step up to reality

Step down from your first-world misery

You’ve got breath in your lungs

And that’s potential to fight for

Many have been through worse than me

I’m not trying to compare our suffering

I just want to emphasize

Appreciation for family, friends, and life

Death is just shots fired in the dark

Chance is just shots fired in the dark As the night went on

His dinner grew colder

Just like his little sister

With no brother to hold her

And as the news poured out

On that night of dreadful wonder

All the color was stolen

From the lives of his father and mothers

Thanks for all the good times

And all the things you taught us

We will never forget you

Just like you never forgot us We’ll press on

We’ll press on

Oh how we wish you were here

We’ll press on

Oh how we wish you were here

We will press on

Oh how we wish you were here

We’ll press on

Oh how we wish you were here

We will press on
