The Day We Dread

The clouds spit rain
from a sky cold and grey
draped in black
the mourners make their way
two hungry graves
will soon have their fill
patiently they await
peaceful and still

Here we are
on the dawn of the day we dread
the wind blows just a little colder
here we are
as they bury the love we had
side by side we're lowered

Death dropped by
kicked down our door
smiled at how i'd left
you crumpled on the floor
one more breath
one more taste of life
one more shot rang out
I fell by your side

Here we are
on the dawn of the day we dread
the wind blows just a little colder
here we are
as they bury the love we had
side by side we're lowered
