about

"Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea."

lyrics

A couple million miles from home and
You're still on my mind
I wish you didn't have to leave
But I swear I'll see you next time

You promised to follow me
You gave me your word
You gave up everything
But I guess you were unsure

Please tell me why you left
I need you to stay
You were my only friend
I feel so betrayed

I thought we were in this together
Heroes til the end
You thought the old life was better
And I lost a friend

A gunshot echoed through the streets
And then i heard your scream
I caught a glimpse of him running away
It felt like a bad dream

I know I could have saved you
But I was too afraid
I don't know what else to do
I just want to see you one day

Please tell me why you left
I need you to stay
You were my only friend
I feel so betrayed

I thought we were in this together
Heroes til the end
You thought the old life was better
And I lost a friend

I'll never know why he took
A life from somebody
I tried but I can't look
At this soulless-lifeless body

I can't bare the thought
Of knowing you'll never come back
Maybe if I try hard enough
Someday you'll come back
