[Verse 1]
A startling phone call led
To a night of little sleep
Counting blessings instead of sheep
We gathered the next morning
Renewing a bond weakened
By years of separation
And though our worlds had slowly drifted apart
The early memories we shared still remained
Timeless in our hearts, there was a time when
We closely followed each others footsteps
Dreaming of endless summers and becoming drummers
[Chorus]
Those days are gone
We mourn the loss of a childhood friend
Trapped in a man's fading intellect
So long
Let these tears wash away the blood on your hands
So long
You're forgiven for easing her pain
[Verse 2]
I can still picture the
Apartment where it took place
We used to play for hours downstairs
Beating drums and hitting snares
[Breakdown]
Embrace those times to endure
That day felt like your funeral
Until we meet again
You will never be forgotten
