Staying strong


with a tragedy like this,

the heart can't find peace

the days pile on

and you try to move on

no one can understand why

you just have to comply

 

with a tragedy like this

a lot is amiss

friends and loved ones die

and awake you lie

with tears in your eyes

and painful cries

 

with a tragedy like this

many will you miss

but all will be fine

and the sun will again shine

let time run it's length

and you will soon find strength

 

know that friends surround you

know that help will find you

people will always be there

with whom memories will you share
