Six Years

One spring mornin'

Six years ago

Felt the shadows

Strangle hold

In the hallway

Hung up the phone

I heard my mother

Please come home

Within my horror

My spirit cold

'Neath the violence

The final blows

Gathering comfort

I do recall

From the darkness

Callin' forth

I called for ya

Chokin' on the white noise rushin'

Howlin' from

The great beyond

I called for ya

I recall the violence rainin' down

I was shiverin'

Stone cold

With the sickenin'

Waves of woe

And the memories

Hauntin' on

I lost the key to all

That ever was

The sunlight struck me

So cynical

Seemed unjust

Void of hope

But there you were

Your wings around me

Found my heart lost

And gave it warmth

I called for ya

Chokin' on the white noise rushin'

Howlin' from

The great beyond

I called for ya

I recall the violence rainin' down

All around

Cherry

Blossom wild and free

Can you still remember

Sister to me

Cherry

Our wild cherry tree

I still remember you and me

Cherry

Blossom wild and free

Forever remember

Sister to me

Cherry

Wild river to the sea

I still remember you and me
