One Life Left

I was just a boy

When you became my family.

You found me in the street

As I slept.

I was just a boy

When you left me with him alone

I was on my own

And I wept.

You left me for lonesome

Up here on the podium

My brother, my friend.

I was just boy

When he betrayed us all

As he approached the wall

Of concrete.

I was just a boy

When he put a firework between your eyes

I still hear your cries

On repeat.

I left you for lonesome

Up there on the podium

I'm sorry my friend.

Do you remember the days when we were

Just boys together?

The hearth burned bright as you smiled

And said "It's us to the end of the world."

You held my hand and I felt whole, I

Wanted to stay there forever.

But now I walk alone. You've left my side.

And I'm scared as the future unfurls.

I'm scared. I only have one life left.

I only have one life left.

And I can't spend it with you
