Black Dove
From Bottle to Lip, then down deep inside
Breathing in and out, the smoke takes his mind
She that he loves was along for the ride
It upset her much, her gears start to grind
Such a simple girl with one broken heart
Fell for a boy she thought she could tame
She knew this was when the change had to start
The drugs started to call out for his name
He doesn't realize they are losing him
The doctors say he has limited days
She holds it together from deep within
The nurse tries to tell her, he'll be okay
From moments of weakness flew the black dove
But fate whispers to them "this is true love"
