Dirt covered caskets

Threw out this life I’ve lived

I’ve seen so many things

I’ve watched the death of Angels

And all the pain it brings

I’ve seen the darkest nights

I’ve had the brightest day

Dirt covered caskets

Though memories will always stay

A larger than life imprint

Of a shoe that can’t be filled

The absence of you presence

A wound that can’t be healed

My greatest fear predestined

Despite my cry, my plea

I held your right hand

As I watched you taken from me

Dirt covered caskets

Though memories always stay

The memory of a mothers love

Press me forward each and every day
