Never Forgotten

"Sittin on this park bench thinkin' about the past
Wonderin' where the time went by so fast
I think I'm alone but my thoughts flow freely
Too much goin' on feelin like I'm knee deep
Most days I think about my deceased high school friends
Remembering their faces and asking God why he needed 'em
All I can think is he needed some young angels to oversee with him
Tony, Adan, Raymond, Gladys how can I forget you?
With your deaths it's like a part of me died too
This place just isn't the same without you
I would trade any material possessions to have you back in a heartbeat
All to just have that again, your hearts beat
All the good times we had is what I miss
The only things I'm left with are the memories so I often reminisce
It's just tough realizing that you're gone
Me walking this earth without you just feels so wrong
Thinking about seein' you in your casket
Hugging your sobbing parents while we walked together passed it
Them saying they're supposed to be the ones getting buried
Sad because they won't be able to see their children get married
Or get to experience what it's like to be a parent
You're constantly on my mind, isn't it apparent?
Wish you can join me on the adventures I take
Like telling God I think he made a mistake
Too soon you guys left this earth
Too many of us are too caught up in what certain things are worth
There's no set price on this thing we take for granted called life
I know you all watch over me and what I do
I can feel you all around me, I don't need a clue
All I ask is for you to continue to guide me through each sin
Hold it down up there, I love you, 'till we meet again."
