Testo Requiem - Corey Taylor

Requiem

We were ready for anything
We were ready for anything
Everyone knows some pain
I see the loss every time someone says your name
When you know someone who shines hard
A soul of the age who dosn’t care
who the fuck you are
You had a friend, a brother who was everything
But he had to go away that was yesterday
I’ve lost a lot of people in my time
The good, the bad, the unreal
and the ones who shine
So I know you all understand
when I say that until they left
We were ready for anything but this
You are not gone
We keep you here inside us
You are not gone
We know you’re still beside us
You are not gone
We have this light you gave to us
Now its time to lay to rest our friend
And through these songs
His memory will never f*cking end
We will see that
Through this loss we’ll shed some light on you
Until the day you left us
We were ready for anything
We were ready for anything but this
You are not gone
We keep you here inside us
You are not gone
We know you’re still beside us
You are not gone
We have this light you gave to us
Why’d you have to go? We never had a chance
I can’t believe it so I wont admit it
Life ain’t shit without you in it
You are not gone
We keep you here inside us
You are not gone
We know you’re still beside us
You are not gone
We have this light you gave to us
Everybody says the light
That shines the brightest
burns out fast
But what they never say is
all the light they give us lasts
We hold the memories and cherish
everyday we had
But we would give it up in a second
just to have you
