Carry me Down

So i posted these lyrics by Demon Hunter becuase i like them pretty good. The leader singer, Ryan Clark, wrote this song to his family becuase he wanted to portray what he wanted his funeral to be like. Kind of wierd but still cool.

If you see me losing ground
Don't be afraid to lie
I know the pain inside my heart
Can't break the fear inside of yours
And if you see me losing faith in what it means to die
Don't let me leave before
I know what lies beyond the stained-glass doors

Save sorrow for the souls in doubt
Bleed every care out
Will you carry me down the aisle that final day,
with your tears and bones shaking from the weight?
When you lower me down beneath that sky of grey,
let the rain fall down and wash away your pain.

For every word we never spoke,
We have a tear to cry
For every silence's like a wall
between a better you and I.

So if you see me losing sight of
all the death and life
Find the peace in every time I fail
to see the death in mine
Let all the fear inside you drown
Tear out the blade that let you down
Save sorrow for the souls in doubt

Bleed every care out
All the blood is rushing outI
'm better off without
The walls are closing inSing for me again

Z- since this household has heard of them we think they write some great lyrics, the kind that make you think and they actually mean something.

Love the best Aunt Jodi.
