In Rock and Roll Heaven

By Eddie PriestPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I also lived a life that fell

Into a blackness worse than Hell

I walked around Alone so long

To hear that every step was wrong

Everybody wanted me Dead

And said it was all in my head

With that life I was there to fall

But now there’s reasons to stand tall

And this is why I wasn’t there

It wasn’t that I didn’t care

A missed chance I see behind me

Life’s moments that will never be

I really wanted you to know

An outside worlds where my dreams go

You are the only one around

To Give Me a dream with your sound

And to you this moment I give

Because you showed me how to live.
