Gone..
He was seventeen and cool
Tall, black hair, and kinda handsome
He was a lifeguard at the local pool
And he was a kid everyone knew
I remember when we met
Third period history
Yeah, he was the coolest kid there
Yet he paid attention to everyone
Now I hear
The hard news
When it comes to this
Turns out I am a mess
It was a Monday night
He was out with some kids
Swimming in a lake
An accident they say
But now I sit here
And pray to God
That he is there
Swimming with the angels
Because in this world
He no longer exists
He is no longer here
He is gone forever
