A Nightmare To Remember

A nightmare to remember, I'd never be the same

What began as laughter so soon would turn to pain

The sky was clear and frigid, the air was thick and still

Now I'm not one to soon forget and I bet I never will

Picture for a moment the perfect irony

A flawless new beginning eclipsed by tragedy

The uninvited stranger started dancing on his own

So we said goodbye to the glowing bride

And we made our way back home

Life was so simple then, we were so innocent

Father and mother holding each other

Without warning out of nowhere

Like a bullet from the night

Crushing glass, rubber and steel

Scorching fire, glowing light

Screams of terror, pain of fear

Sound of sirens, smoke in my eyes

Sudden stillness, blackened silence

No more screaming, no more cries

Stunned and bewildered, cold and afraid

Torn up and broken, frightened and dazed

Stunned and bewildered, cold and afraid

Torn up and broken, frightened and dazed

Lying on the table in this unfamiliar place

I'm greeted by a stranger, a man without a face

He said, "Son, do you remember? Do you even know your name?"

Then he shined a light into my eyes

And said, "Take this for the pain"

Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony

I am endlessly falling lost in this wonderful misery

In peaceful sedation I lay half awake

And all of the panic inside starts to fade

Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony

"Tell me does this hurt you?", said the faceless man

Can you move all of your fingers? Can you try your best to stand?

I asked about the others, is everyone okay?

He told me not to worry as he turned and looked away

Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony

I am endlessly falling lost in this wonderful misery

In peaceful sedation I lay half awake

And all of the panic inside starts to fade

Hopelessly drifting, bathing in beautiful agony

Day after day and night after night

Replaying the events, did they ever see the red light?

Over and over, scene by scene

Like a reoccurring nightmare haunting my dreams

How can you prepare for what would happened next?

No son should ever have to see his father such a mess

It's a miracle he lived, it's a blessing no one died

By the grace of God above everyone survived

Life was so simple then, we were so innocent

It will stay with us forever, a nightmare to remember
