I've faced death before, but not like this
This is cold, this is empty, this is numb
The life I knew is over, the lights are out
Hello darkness, I'm ready to succumb
0
I loved you like the son I never had
But you went to a place I could not find
That grief had a gravity, it pulled me down
But I hear your voice speaking in my mind
0
"You are lost, hope is gone
But you must go on
And do the next right thing."

Can there be a day beyond this night?
I don't know anymore what is true
I can't find my direction, I'm all alone
The reason I went on this quest was you
0
How to do what you ask?
It seems such an awful task
Just do the next right thing
Watch you die, yet again
It is all that I can
To do the next right thing
0
I won't wallow in my guilt
That's not what you'd want for me
I will honor your request
And do my best
To live my life, and let your soul go free
0
So I'll say my goodbyes
And look straight into your eyes
To do the next right thing
0
And when I wake, what comes then?
When it's clear that everything
Will never be the same again?
Then I'll make the choice
To hear your voice
And do the next right thing.
