when you've read the letter telling you she's gone
crushed the envelope and let go
as your heart is sinking floorward like a stone
you must face this moment alone

seven forty seven swimming like a swan
through a cloudburst lit from below
as your wings are flailing through a no-fly zone
you must face this moment alone

please remember everything will go
as it should as it should
and acknowledge if you do not know
things should not always be good

is that someone knocking or wind on the window
noisy suspiration or moan?
the shade withdraws revealing a skull made out of bone
you must face this moment alone

solo at the graveyard in the blue moonglow
everything is written in stone
when you get the feeling you are not alone
you must face this feeling alone
you must face this moment alone
