The Only One That Can Save Us (John's Song)

The Only One That Can Save Us (John's Song)

A Poem by Katie Richards
"

I wrote this song for my brother the week before he died of Stage 4 Lung Cancer...

"

Drink the bottle down...

It won't change a thing...

The battle's already through.

 

Your heart retreats...

From within your chest, just to ease the pain...

Of losing.

 

It took my hero away

This plague stole my hero away

Stories aren't supposed to end this way

Yet, it took my hero away

 

Scorch it on my arm...

With a singe of fire and a straight knife...

The name of the one I've lost.

 

Now we bow our heads...

To the only one that can save us...

Thank God for faith in God.

 

I'll see you again someday...
