Oh my eyes have seen it all
The rise of tumour, an angel fall
The jolt that runs when heavens call
The anguish of a crying soul
Oh my eyes have seen it all

Oh my lungs have breathed in
The vicious smoke from burnin’
Down the monster who dwells within
A place that’s had no joy or sin
Oh my lungs have breathed thin

Oh my heart has felt a war
On the cold concrete floor
The agony in a hapless roar
For the opening of a door
Oh my heart could feel no more

You taught me how to speak and talk
You taught me how to be
You taught me how to run and walk
You taught me who is me
…
You taught me how to earn my bread
The strength of a human mind
You taught me what to take ahead
And what to leave behind
…
You taught me how to keep my faith
Find hope in the heavens above
You taught me how to wipe out hate
Put all my trust in love
…
You taught me how must one transact
You taught me discipline
You taught me how I must react
In failure and in win
…
You taught me how to see the rain
How to feel it with my eyes
You taught me how to bear my pain
You taught me sacrifice
…
You taught me what is right and real
You taught me what to give
You taught me how to breathe and feel
You taught me how to live

If I had a magic pencil
That could bring anything to life
What would I draw first?
You

They say we’ll never meet again
There is one way still
With my words, I’ll create a world
Where someday we will

When that smile went off your face
And you left us all alone
This Earth became a darker place
But the heavens brightly shone

All the dollars, yen and pounds
The fallen leaves on the ground
Little children playing around
The smiles on their faces too
Could not ever replace you
…
The grumbling of the passing trains
The mess and calm in the rains
The concrete roads, the empty lanes
The blooming flowers’ dew
Could not ever replace you
…
The drudgeries of every day
The tumbling blocks in my way
The hollow words I hear one say
Even if they’re false or true
Could not ever replace you
…
The little tricks of my brain
The nervous signals of my veins
The clothes I wear, the yellow stains
On my soul, so bright and new
Could not ever replace you
…
God and Devil, the demon’s cast
Love and hatred of my past
The angel’s song that may never last
Heaven, Hell, the sky so blue
Could not ever replace you

Once there was a mountain tall
Housing creatures big and small
Fighting wild and gruesome storms
To keep the creatures safe and warm
…
But she could only fight so long
She could only keep so strong
For the waters made a crack
From her breast up to her back
…
The cracks were flooded by the rain
Nothing worked to ease the pain
Though the creatures gave her heart
Slowly, surely she fell apart
…
When she fell, oh how she fell
Everything turned a living hell
The shelter on their heads was gone
Left were only little stones
