Copeland - His Song (Single Version) Lyrics

Only a boy
Lost long ago
He never had
The strength to know
I look into his eyes
What I see is no surprise
The joy leaves from his cries
As the smile shatters into dreams
Your death is nothing but what it seems
It lingers on to what it used to be
Only a boy
It's not the same
A missing soul
Stares back again
The dead they know your name
As the color from your face has drained
Exposed film shall play the game
And your sorrow ends with a swift and sudden departure from your mind
I know you're gone
Lost to me now
Out in the rain
Don't ask me how
Your friends fade through the hours
You find yourself coughing up flowers
The soul of death devours
The final piece of you left; your only crime was resisting arrest
