The brightest light

as we sit around the fire of life

on the sandbar of endless time

we long for the laugh, another dumb joke

or the stories that were nearly a crime

wondering ,who's gonna pick up the pieces

where do we even begin

when a person you loved is now gone

all hope floats away in the wind

praying to god up above

that all of this is really a dream

hoping when were finally awake

that the current had washed it downstream

when the brightest light in the sky goes down

broken shadows slowly wonder around

searching for ways, to get through the days

with the strings of their souls unwound

mourning in disbelief, begging for any relief

trying their best to hide from the meaningless sound

when the brightest light in the sky goes down

could the future have even been seen

with a magic crystal ball

would it tell of the upcoming pain

gave us time to answer the call

we gathered the strength to combat it

we battled the doom from the start

we didn't retreat, faced the defeat

till the last loving beat of her heart

now the emptiness overwhelms us

and days have turned to night

our brightest light has left us

nothing left for us to fight

when the brightest light in the sky goes down

broken shadows slowly wonder around

searching for ways, to get through the days

with the strings of their souls unwound

mourning in disbelief, begging for any relief

trying their best to hide from the meaningless sound

when the brightest light in the sky goes down
