Lyrics Michael - HoneyChrome

I once knew a boy
Twenty years old
Living life on his own
Doing nothing he was told
Hit the gym everyday
Future was on the way
No one saw it coming
He got tired of running
Running from something
No one can define
Only answer to the puzzle
Is locked up in his mind
A mind misunderstood
Holding it all in
At a party Friday night
Next morning caught in sin

Experience a moment of silence
Experience violence
Through parents now childless
We've heard stories that will remain timeless
We can't be relying on death to remind us
We think our lives sometimes go roughly
Well this boy's life ended abruptly
I'm griding my teeth
Standing in my sleep
Hope your dream's complete
And you're resting in peace

What causes us to take our lives?
Whose choice is it to make?
Just one life is all it takes
Exposing what's at stake
The stake between the heart
The living man will now depart
So lonely on his own
His final stitch is sewn
Oh brother of this Earth
Please know you are worth
More than these words can say
More than secrets more than pain
Michael where'd the pain come from?
Tell me what have we done?
Some may say you've lost the race
But we all know you've won

I can't believe he took his life
Experience violence through parents now childless
Whose choice was it to make?
We can't be relying on death to remind us
Just one life is all it takes
Well this boy's life ended abruptly
Exposing what's at stake
Hope your dream's complete
And you're resting in peace

Today we let a child go
Today we let our crying flow
Today will mark no not the end
He will start a new life again
Golden son this boy was one
Of a kind
He can fly, he can fly
His memory won't die
Friends and family come together
Come together
Mourn the loss
Endure the weather
Endure the weather
The breeze that blew upon your face
The breeze that came and took your place
I may not be your best of friend
But I will be here to defend

I can't believe he took his life
We won't forget our brethren
Whose choice was it to make?
The legend, the legacy
Just one life is all it takes
Win our hearts you will be
Exposing what's at stake
In our hearts you will be
