My darling Sherlock, if you're reading this letter
It means I didn't make it
I just pray that I didn't die in vain stopping the king
And I hope I didn't die alone
The words that I've written, I hope you carry with you
Help you remember us and how much I cherish you
And I hope you hold them in your heart
And help guide you on the path you think you must now travel alone
But my darling, you'll never be alone
I'll always be with you
Do you hear me now
Through every bird that crows and wind that howls?
Do you feel me from the Sun
That casts away the rain, that cuts through the shadows
Keeping the dark at bay?
From where we lie, with all our friends
Who died by my side, you keep them alive
Until the Gods tells you it's time
Take a walk with me
Through the poppy fields
Where we can rest
You can rest your head
Because where we'd lie
Is where hope stands high
And our hearts live on
Through everyone, but not now
You dry your eyes and keep your head held high
Shed all the black, and dress me in white
And dance in the rays with a smile upon your face
What a beautiful sight
To be loved as loud as the stars that shine so bright
Let them guide you how I was taken beyond the veil to where I lie
With all our friends
Side by side, they wish you the best
As you walk with me
Through the poppy fields
Where I now rest
Where you can rest your head
Because where I lie
Is where hope stands high
And my heart lives on
Through everyone, but not mine
The pain you must feel, weighing heavy upon your head
Embrace it, if but for a moment
But I hark back to a time once simpler
Where the words, though more final now
Mean more than what they once did
Bury the guilt, bury the pain
You remind me of God
In the devilish of ways
Is there a hole in your chest where my head used to lay?
Is there a light in the dark where I'd promised I'd stay?
I know your heart aches at the foot of my grave
So cradle my bones, should death take me away
Bury the guilt, bury the pain
You will always be my God
So until we meet again
Bury the guilt, bury the pain
You will always be my God
So until we meet again
