Life as we know it has come to an end A suburban catastrophe Its time to start mourning the death of a friend Whos standing in front of me And I cant stop the hatred that wells up inside As I look for a glimmer in his vacant eyes And I cant do a damn thing cause I cant feel a damn thing With a hole in my heart thats a thousand miles wide cause the smile has left his face The portrait of happiness he cant retrace Gone is the love that once lived there Its cold as a stone, cold as a stone Its laid out before him with trembling hands But the parts dont seem to fit And the 34 winters havent left him as cold As this one conversation did And I dont understand with eyes open wide Why you see love so clearly but it still leaves you blind And I cant do a damn thing, cause I cant say a damn thing And I cant stop this woman from pushing him aside cause the smile has left his face The portrait of happiness he cant retrace Gone is the love that once lived there Its cold as a stone, cold as a stone Life as we know it has come to an end Nothing can be the same
