When I Close My Eyes

When I close my eyes for a while
I see the way you laugh and smile
The way you gave life that flair
The way that you were always there

And it breaks my heart to remember
The events of that December
To lose you in the cold and snow
To know the way you had to go

And the way you lay with hands like ice
And a beautiful face that still looked ‘nice’
And through my fears I hear your voice
As if my crying was not my choice

And I need you now to hold me close
It’s times like this I miss you most
When these words they echo in my head:

You’re dead.

You’re dead.
You're dead, you’re dead.
