Written and Performed by King Lizzard for his Memorial Service
There I lay, naked and fragile
Just like the day I was born.
the heart keeps holding feelings
that the sands of time have worn
If you think of all the good things
and put them in my heart
they'll overcome the bad things
like a candle lights the dark
So please try to think of me
as the man I used to be
I'm not here for long
I'm only passing through.
You see me as your soldier
you see me as your knight
I'm fighting for your memory
as I'm fighting for my life...
Through drink and tears we drown
All the things we want to forget
through hazy dreams we all have too
many things we all regret
So please try to think of me
as the man I used to be
I'm not here for long
I'm only passing through.
And now the snow is falling
It's been a long, strange ride
Someday soon you'll close your eyes
and forever be by my side.
So please try to think of me
as the man I used to be
My soul is finally free
I'm not here for long
I'm only passing through.
