"First Will And Testament" lyrics
"First Will And Testament"
Every September I always remember
To sing to your headstone
And hear you sing back
Wait for the day
Work for the day
How could I forget the world you showed me
Courage and brilliance curiosity
Wait for the day
Work for the day
Too many watery eyes in protest
For a brighter age
All the while I'll shine in this song
Even when my body's gone
Too many watery eyes in protest
For a brighter age
All the while you shine in this song
Even when your body's gone
I'll hear you sing back
Wait for the day
Work for the day
Now every September I always remember
To sing to your headstone and hear you sing back
Wait for the day
Work for the day
Too many watery eyes in protest
For a brighter age
All the while I'll shine in this song
Even when your body's gone
Too many watery eyes in protest
For a brighter age
All the while you'll shine in this song
Even when your body's gone
Beyond time and place
In your footstep's trace
When we close our eyes
And we see your face
Beyond the days
Your art and voice are missed
Beyond sentiment
Every word is bond
Beyond memory
When these days are gone
I'll carry you in my heart and soul and fist
I promise now
Through the days
Every smile's memorial
Every time
We raise a glass to your name
It's your energy flows through me
I promise you
I will walk
With my heart still open
Courage spoken loud
I put my song on the track
To hear you sing back

Lagwagon - "Heartbreaking Music" I've already come to terms
With bridges I have burned
We all make mistakes
We keep preparing for the worst
So it won't seem adverse
Just like we rehearsed
Click, two, three, heartbreaking...
Rise Against - "I Don't Want To Be Here Anymore" On pins and needles we are waiting for the fall
We count the days scratching lines on the wall
Wait in the wings at someone’s beck and call
No longer recognize the place that I call home
No longer...
Red City Radio - "If You Want Blood (Be My Guest)" Now that I've got your attention
I never thought that it would take this long
So long in fact that I've forgotten what
I was gonna say all along
A lot of work, no pay
That's been us for the last ten...
Pulley - "Blindfold" Sitting in the backyard on a Sunday
In the morning touched by you
And all your curls that sucked me in
I can hear you when you're screaming
I hear you when you're talking to me
Laughing at the jokes...
The Flatliners - "Fred's Got Slacks" Destroy positions of power and what stands between you and the final stretch
Where you find out what happens in the end
Man on the corner preaching, screaming the devil is coming!
And the earth will...
