The Pain That Remains (Inspired by "Naruto")

A cold hand on my shoulder
Am I dreaming it all in my head
I feel your heartbeat get slower
Why couldn't I take your place instead

The test you left was written on my chest
your pain contains all that remains

Your name falls down under the ground I hear it now
The raindrops sound like you're turning to ashes
while your memory passes

But I won't let your sacrifice fade away
Cause you taught me how to be strong and brave
I'll keep you close in every single way
And now I'll honor you in every step I take

The test you left was written on my chest
your pain contains all that remains

Your name falls down under the ground I hear it now
The raindrops sound like you're turning to ashes
while your memory passes

Some say the end justifies the means But I know that's not how you ever taught me
I won't let greed or ambition stand in my
way ruin the mission
I won't use any means at all To get what I want, to break the fall
I'll take the high road, I'll pay the toll
no compromise, won't sell my soul

Your name falls down under the ground I hear it now
Your name falls down under the ground I hear it now
The raindrops sound like you're turning to ashes
while your memory passes
