Engelchen

I used to walk up to your door
Eager to see your face
Now I stand outside and weep
Longing for your warm embrace

The house where you once lived
Now stands as a silent shroud
I must go on, honoring my youth
I know you would be proud

But I'm so scared
My body turns to ice
I feel so small
I need the peace of your eyes

I've lost faith in empty promises of heaven
Your soul, a mistery, nowhere to be seen
No signal

Still, I set your glass at the table
Hoping you'll join us
If only in my dreams

Your picture, a constant companion
A reminder of memories so clear
As I stood there by your side
In that cold, unforgiving light
A part of me was dying too
Give me strength to fight
