In the dark I gaze alone
Upon the only path I've ever known
Life and death, wrong and right
Why Johnny never wore a suit of white
I look to the sky and wonder why..
Why did my brothers have to die?
But the sky turns to darkness then back to day
There's no explanation why I have to feel this way.
So I square up my shoulders I have no more tears to cry
And I feel thankful that I'm still alive.
