Keep Me In Mind
Keep me in mind as you walk those empty halls
As you suffer in the awkward silence of me being gone
As you slowly forget the sound of my voice
As you remember the light that once shined in my eyes
Keep me in mind as you walk past that police tape again
The spot where you watched me take my last few breaths
That dark remote place where that monster stabbed me
That place where you can't stand to see again
Keep me in mind as you walk into that church
When you walk up and ask the priest to listen to your sins
When you confess that you are the reason I am dead
When you admit your dealer killed me because of your debt
Keep in mind as you are being dragged to your cell
As the steel cage entraps you and your dealer for what you have done
As you say I didn't mean for her to be killed
As you scream how much you loved me and needed me
Keep me in mind as you rot in that prison
Knowing that if you would have just paid I'd still be alive
Knowing that you were the reason that I was murdered that night
Knowing that they warned you about the consequences
Keep me in mind when our daughter come to visit
With your sister who can't even look you in the eye
Our Danielle with her big blue eyes just like mind
As she tells you how much she misses you and me
Keep me in mind as you start to cry as she hugs you goodbye
As she says she doesn't want you to let go
As she screams your name as Nova carried her out the door
As the door shuts on her tear full little face
Keep me in mind and never forget that I love you
I love you but I will never forgive you
As you suffer in the awkward silence of me being gone
As you slowly forget the sound of my voice
As you remember the light that once shined in my eyes
Keep me in mind as you walk past that police tape again
The spot where you watched me take my last few breaths
That dark remote place where that monster stabbed me
That place where you can't stand to see again
Keep me in mind as you walk into that church
When you walk up and ask the priest to listen to your sins
When you confess that you are the reason I am dead
When you admit your dealer killed me because of your debt
Keep in mind as you are being dragged to your cell
As the steel cage entraps you and your dealer for what you have done
As you say I didn't mean for her to be killed
As you scream how much you loved me and needed me
Keep me in mind as you rot in that prison
Knowing that if you would have just paid I'd still be alive
Knowing that you were the reason that I was murdered that night
Knowing that they warned you about the consequences
Keep me in mind when our daughter come to visit
With your sister who can't even look you in the eye
Our Danielle with her big blue eyes just like mind
As she tells you how much she misses you and me
Keep me in mind as you start to cry as she hugs you goodbye
As she says she doesn't want you to let go
As she screams your name as Nova carried her out the door
As the door shuts on her tear full little face
Keep me in mind and never forget that I love you
I love you but I will never forgive you
