And Life Was Great... Lyrics

And life was great
But it all left too soon
Now it's too late
Everyone has gone
A struggle to go one step
A fight to take one breath
All a war inside
The cannons blaze on through

What if I change the tide?
What if I go instead?

It said there was no feeling
It said there was no hope
The note was hard to read
The paper was thin
and his handwriting grim
But from the look of it this was no ordinary note.
The remnants stain the walls
You can't bear to look
Reality sets in
He only needed your sympathy
A hint of compassion
And there was none
He only needed your affection
And there was none

All these things that eat at me
All these things that never go away
Now it's too late
Everyone has gone
