She was in a car accident. I didn't know her too well, but I knew her enough where I feel sad. I mean, I saw her and said hi to her everyday. And she was only 16. So I wrote this for her tonight.

It's called "Not A Word Of Goodbye"

Blow your trumpet in the fiery night skies
Where only angels hear you play
Feel the rain drops falling from the tears in their eyes
And then slowly walk away

I missed you last time you came around
Your name I won't forget
The busting glass and screeching tire sound
Made me wish God had taken me instead

Blow your trumpet in the fiery night skies
Where only angels hear you play
Feel the rain drops falling from the tears in their eyes
And then slowly walk away

Oh, young child where have you gone
Your time would be better spent on Earth
For the one who did this I wrote you a song
One more woman gone who'll never give birth

Blow your trumpet in the fiery night skies
Where only angels hear you play
Feel the rain drops falling from the tears in their eyes
And then slowly walk away

In the devestation I had to tip my hat
I knelt down beside her to pray
With her family is where I kindly sat
Not a word of goodbye did I say

Blow your trumpet in the fiery night skies
Where only angels hear you play
Feel the rain drops falling from the tears in their eyes
And then slowly walk away
"I'm a thief, and I dig it"

    that was beautifull ;) hang in there honey i know it is so fucking hard, but you are still here for a reason. embrace life and those in yours everyday because someday it will be YOUR last.
    I never meant to hurt you, mi diablo, mi amigo, but I've built up so much character I have an alter ego. I have to make a clean break & I have to do it quick because the pain you give me babe would make Cal Ripken call in sick!!!
