Holes To Heaven

The rain falls down everywhere outside,
The funeral progression passes by my eyes,
My windows are painted black so death cant see me
But they roll down their windows I can feel them stare at me.
They're digging their holes in the ground to heaven,
Through this endless field with countless crosses,
Do they save a place for everyone,
To dig their hole to heaven.
I cant understand what it means to be alive,
Cause me I never really had a life,
They put their gun in my hands and said to me
Boy this is what you were meant to be.
This winter weather has hardened the ground,
Where I lay without a sound,
I look up and see through someone else's eyes
Staring at this land where my body lies.
They dug my hole to heaven,
I'm laying here with a faded picture of you,
Theres an empty hole beside me,
I saved for you.
