In a wide dark field, I am so alone
The wind moves my hair, light shines upon a stone
Where did they all go, why am I still here
Questions tax my mind, I hope to meet my fear
Clouds begin to part, there's a rumble in the ground
Wait a second what's that? I think I heard a sound
It sounds like someone talking, calling out my name
It sounds like they're in danger, screaming out in pain
I run in that direction, but it was too late
It was my final friend, I think she's met her fate
She lays upon the ground, reaching to the sky
She's asking god to help her, she doesn't want to die
I went to grab her hand, and asked her not to go
She tried so hard to live, but god he just said no

As she lay there dead, I never felt so weak
There's nothing I could do, there's nothing I could speak
Her eyes were left wide open, staring to the sky
Looking toward god's grace, until she had to die
Why didn't he save her? Why'd he take her breath?
Does he even exist? Did he cause her death?
Thunder again cracks, shaking in the sky
The rain finally falls, dripping in her eye
It seemed she was crying, as the water overflowed
Are her wings just broken? Were sins too big a load?
Can she even fly, to heaven where she'll rest?
I know she lived her life, serving god her best
God just left her there, I guess she didn't fit
I don't think he exists, I think it's all bullshit
