Live On - Henry Taylor

Still not real to me

Still feels like your here-really

And i don’t mean lingering eerily

Just life keeps going by easily

Like your still away on holiday

Cause everyday all is okay

And thats something i feel ashamed to say

Cause since that may, should be dismayed

Makes me thinks i don’t miss you

Till i realise it’s not true

Being fine with life’s no issue

In fact its even more credit to you, break through

Maybe i can be alright with that

Cause you provided my habitat

So enjoying myself theres no harm in that

Won’t watch the way i act like I’m a democrat

Know whatever i do id make you proud

Which endeavour i choose, who I’m around

Whether its with sound, like i do now

In the background or world renowned

Never thought i could deal with this

Now the thing i love helps me deal with it

I channel you through my music

And help someone else to deal with there shit

I know that I will still miss you

Sometimes i still need a tissue

On nights that are hard to get through

Never appreciated when you come to my room

Just to make me kiss you

Yet unfortunately life continues

Even though sometimes i don’t want it to

And i feel more than just blue

When depression sets in it can take a hold

Makes me think i don’t want to grow old

Life being cruel is the only thing I know

When I’m in that state i just can’t be told

But then i come back again

When i channel those feeling through my pen

Whether I’m writing angry like an argument

To ignite the fire inside like an arsonist

Or calm and collected

To make sure the words are effective

To break me from the dark place I’m in after feelings have manifested

So i say some words to get me out that place

Like a prayer but you know i don’t have faith

Came to me one night, so appropriate

So these words to you, i dedicate

People don’t die

But the they don’t go to heaven

The memory’s that are in my mind

The legacy they leave behind

People don’t die

But the they don’t go to heaven

The memory’s that are in my mind

The legacy they leave behind

Which lets them live on

Which lets them live on

Which lets them live on

Which lets them live on

Been over a year without you here

Death is something I no longer fear

No longer scare that if i disappear

Id leave nothing behind to be revered

And recently my mind is clear

As long as i persevere

With what ever i do, whatever my career

Make sure I’m being honest and sincere

As longs as one person feels inspired

That should be all thats required

Fame and wealth isn’t what is desired

Cause i once heard a phase that should be admired

Life is a river, And people are the pebbles

Thrown into the water, Creating ripples

Effect the water around them, flowing from the middle

Till the current takes over, allowing the water to settle

The moment is fleeting

Which adds beauty to the meaning

Can’t stop the ravine careening

The only thing i need is

For people know

To throw more stones

Once I go
