Anger over the death of a close friend

Lyrics

Angry Love

Words & Music by John Thome

I never think I?ll understand the silence that you kept
Or why you choose to fight alone, is so hard to accept
Nor your gone, it?s too late, I can?t pretend
My heart aches with pain as I say good-bye my friend

Some loads are too much for one soul
The weight of life eroding takes its toll
Time?s an enemy and judgment becomes cloudy
Trying to regain what God once stole

The tough facade and gruff persona really wasn?t true
But giving up without a fight, I expected more of you
Not a word or a sign left behind or above
Just a memory remains now encased in angry love

I can?t believe that you have gone
Final decision surely wrong
You made a choice, I paid the price
If we?d just had a chance to say ?so long?

Every fall as cold winds come I?ll stop and think of all
The times we had, the laughs we shared, your untimely fall
I expect it will take many years and a day
But you?re finally at peace with yourself and with May
