Mvt 1:

A Nightmare to remember

I'd never be the same.

What began as laughter

So soon would turn to pain.

The sky was clear and frigid

The air was thick and still

Now I'm not one to soon forget

And I bet I never will

Picture for a moment

The perfect irony

A flawless new beginning

Eclipsed by tragedy.

The uninvited stranger

Started dancing on his own

So we said goodbye to the glowing bride

And we made our way back home.

Life was so simple then

We were so innocent.

Father and mother

Holding each other.

Without warning

Out of nowhere

Like a bullet

From the night

Crushing Glass

Rubber and steel

Scorching fire

Glowing lights

Screams of terror

Pain of Fear

Sounds of sirens

Smoke in my eyes

Sudden stillness

Wrapped in silence

No more screaming

No more cries

Stunned and bewildered

Cold and afraid

Torn up and broken

Frightened and dazed

Stunned and bewildered

Cold and afraid

Torn up and broken

Frightened and dazed

Mvt 2:

Lying on the table

In this unfamiliar place

I'm greeted by a stranger

A man without a face

He said "Son do you remember?

Do you even know your name?"

Then he shined a light into my eyes

And said "take this for the pain."

Hopelessly drifting

Bathing in beautiful agony.

I am endlessly falling

Lost in this wonderful misery.

In peaceful sedation I lay half awake

And all of the panic inside starts to fade.

Hopelessly drifting bathing in beautiful agony.

"Tell me does this hurt you?"

Said the faceless man.

"Can you move all of your fingers?

Can you try your best to stand?"

I asked about the others

"Is everyone okay?"

He told me not to worry

As he turned and looked away.

Hopelessly drifting

Bathing in beautiful agony.

I am endlessly falling

Lost in this wonderful misery.

In peaceful sedation I lay half awake

And all of the panic inside starts to fade.

Hopelessly drifting bathing in beautiful agony.

Mvt 3:

Day after day

And night after night

Replaying the Events

Did they ever see the red light?

Over and over

Scene by scene

Like a recurring nightmare haunting my dreams.

How could you prepare

For what would happen next?

No Son should ever have to see

His father such a mess.

It's a miracle he lived

It's a blessing no one died

By the Grace of God above

Everyone survived

[Scream]

Life was so simple then

We were so innocent.

It will stay with us forever

A nightmare to remember
