To my dearest Tony,
For so long you have suffered
For so long you have fought for us
And not once did you stop thinking about how to save the world
How to keep it safe
How you could protect it
Oh the suffering you have endured
For those you love
For those you have lost
For those you don't even know
Betrayal, fear, anger, frustration
You have felt them all beyond limitation
And not once were you able to rest
From the warning bells in your mind
Not once did this deter you
At least not until the day
The world fell
The heroes lost
Evil triumphed
The world turned bleak
The world turned grey
When the titan snapped them all away
With a click of his fingers
With a glow of gems
Half the universe lost its way
The day the titan snapped them away
With the feeling of utter failure
The heroes left returned to their lives
Not a word spoken between two
Not a word for five years
But in those years
The happiness you found
In raising a family
That was yours and yours alone
The fear of being a horrible dad
Washed away with the love
That came from a wife and child
Peace at last
For five short years
Five. Short. Years
You deserved more
Before you heard the heroes call
Listened to their possibility
Of restoring half the world
But despite the family that was yours
That you beyond adored
You took the call, did that and more
You saved the world
With heroes new and old
Good triumphed evil
As it should
But not without sacrifice
Five short years
OF pure bliss and happiness
You did better than the best of the best
But it's okay now, you can rest...
You can rest
