Time stops for them
They’ve lost a friend
Never will they see again
Though never in the past have met
Inside they feel an emptiness
As favored star is laid to rest
So bright he shone
So swiftly gone
Never more to sing his song
So sad they seem
The pain cuts deep
In their hearts they swear to keep
As I sit and watch the pain
I wonder should I try to feign
To make myself seem more humane
But tears don’t fall
I’ve none at all
Emotionally I’ve hit a wall
I cannot feel
It seems unreal
No wounds have I that need to heal
Someone’s dead, someone’s gone
Ne’er again to sing their song
I’ve tried and tried, all day long
I cannot hide
How dead inside
Why can’t I feel when someone dies?
