Four Years
(2002)

Demons and Angels talked to me that day
A cool Sunday September evening, the sunlight still danced across the sky
A simple day, a simple thought that stirs in me every second
Frozen in time, unreachable, yet I see it clearly
Walking together, holding your hand with love in your eyes
..now just tears in mine

Why did this happen, Who is to blame? Your life taken away from me
You know that I love and miss you to the very core of my soul
I took everything I had and offered it freely, yet it's lost
The greatest sorrow I have ever known resides within that moment
A precious piece of time, a shard of life incased in yesterday
..now just falling far away from me

I cannot let demons win, I'm getting out, I'm ashamed of nothing
The last words I spoke, and the last words I heard leave your lips burn inside
As if nothing ever changes, missing you at 4am, your hatred for "my" mistakes
Who should judge who? Can years of a precious soul be replaced by spite?
I care if your angry, I care what you do, I care about you
Where hate once lived, and fights still to this day
Serenity and Hope battle far harder, and lead the words I speak
...Angels speaking to me, spinning free

Dreaming of you here tonight, Closer and stronger then ever before
Holding my princess in my arms wrapped tight
Sunshine on my skin, warmth that lifts my thoughts skyward
Up in the clouds I can almost see a future, out there somewhere
A song I sing to myself everyday of my life
...For the last Four Years.
