Flash

It's hard in a flash to let you go

It's hard in a flash to let you go

When we were young we were told that we could

Just be boys and let our dreams unfold

And as we grew we lived a sheltered life

A modern life that let us run and play

But it's tough when god comes crashing in to keep your soul at peace

And it's tough to do this growing up when driven to your knees

And it's hard in a flash to let you go

Oh it's hard in a flash to let you go

Playing songs of the past

Sharing the meals we would share is how we deal

With the sheathing of our skin

And the thought that we could win against all odds

When it's tough when god comes crashing in to set your soul on fire

And it's tough to keep this love alive when stripped of your desire

When the filaments behind my eyes are rusted rotten burnt

Then I think of you and all is bright a flash among the burn

But it's tough when god comes crashing in to keep your soul at rest

And it's tough to do this growing up when delivered such a test

But we fight and strive to live the life that you had hoped to lead

And we're drinking in your honor even though you'll never leave us

Cos it's true

Yes it's true

Oh it's true

I love you
