Wandering streets
The night my only friend
The stars try to lighten my heart
But it means nothing in the end

The path leads nowhere
But I walk it anyway
The tears that flow from my eyes
Pray I will see you one day

All I have is you in my mind
The smile on your face
The tears in my eyes
All I have are memories
The happy times
Are your legacy
Your memory


You walked this path with me
The day your feet knew the Earth
Brothers and sisters we marched
In each other we found our worth

Now only my footsteps echo
In the streets of the still alive
But with your memory in my heart
I know I will survive

All I have is you in my mind
The smile on your face
The tears in my eyes
All I have are memories
The happy times
Are your legacy
Your memory


All I have is the memory of you
Boys and girls acting such fools
All I have are memories of how we used to be
And with that alone, you will always live in me

All I have is you in my mind
The smile on your face
The tears in my eyes
All I have are memories
The happy times
Are your legacy
Your memory

This was originally written as tribute to all my friends who have died. Here is my original Artist Comment:

"I miss you all, but as I sit here wondering who the hell I am, your memory reminds me of all we've done, all we've seen. Through your memories, you have reminded me of the person I am and the person I aspire to be. You reminded me that within me, my heart beats strongly. I love you, dear friends, with all I have. And to the friends who I am so fortunate to know living...=Kael-Thas-Sunstrider, ~darkenygma, ~Christof05, =michelleleo71, =LoneSWolf, ~x-Eilidh-x, =pink-littlemermaid, ~Black1Guard, ~doorfromheaven and everyone...I love you with all my heart. Thank you all for reminding me who I am and showing me that as long as I have hope in my soul, love in my heart and the memories of those who helped me who I am, I can survive and be the man I aspire to be. I will not let you down."

Whilst one or two of these people are no longer friends, I am still very greatful for the friendships I have had and the learning experiences they gave me.

Thank you to you all.
