I Lost Someone
I lost someone
To a life of the unloved
Someone who brought untold limits
I lost someone to the heavens above
A heart of a giant
Towering higher than Jacks stalk
But met a wolf when crossing a fork
I lost someone to the Devils talk
The heart of a fighter
Now has fallen from the sky
Dropped to knees and blood
I lost someone to dangerous lies
An arrow to the chest
Gunned down in a game
Playing the streets
I lost someone with a name
The faces of currency whispered
The needle of the fallen angels cried
When brought together, a moment of serenity
I lost someone when these two things collide
In the stars, a war rages
Where winners count are none
Head up child, count your blessings
Because I lost someone.
