Days Gone By

Two in the morning, a disturbing call
From a mother’s trembling face, the tears begin to fall
A midnight race to the hospital
But it’s already too late
A few beers and a set of car keys
Have claimed another victim’s fate, mass hysteria on the final night
Oxygen masks mixed with angel’s flight
So many questions to which no answers will be found
As another piece of your family
Will soon be laid into the ground
Makes the calm, the crazy
Drives the strong to their knees
Nothing runs deeper than the blood of the family
No longer feels the pain inflicted by his lifestyle
Too wild, no one knows the pain of the mother
Who’s lost her child
Some will remember the troubles he caused
His fall backs personality flaws
We’ll reminisce to the days gone by and hear
Memories of laughter between a mother’s cries
Time will pass, some will forget
There remains ones' wounds that have not healed yet
All have lives of their own, all will grieve and move on
But one’s pain will never be gone a mother is all alone
