Jamestown Story Far Away
Slowly, swinging back and forth as I attempt to disbelieve
Softly, the wind breaths in and out as if to keep my lungs working
Suddenly, a ringer of good memories come flooding back to me
Safely, you were swept away leaving the pain to stay with me
Where, where do I go from here?
Where, where do you go from here?
Slowly, sinking more and more into a state of wretchedness
Softly, voices whisper words that make the pain hard to forget
Suddenly, they take you away and make the way to where you’ll sleep
Safely, a way to rest I can’t forget the moment you left me
I watched you fall
I lost it all
Now you’re far away
And now the ground
Separates us
And keeps you safe
We were never meant for this day
We were never meant for this place with
No ambition
You were never meant for this day
You were never meant for this place with
No remission
Now I’m waiting
Always waiting
With your patience
Commemorating
I watched you fall
I lost it all
Now you’re far away
And now the ground
Separates us
And keeps you safe
We were never meant for this day
We were never meant for this place with
No ambition
You were never meant for this day
You were never meant for this moment
