Paragon Of Virtue

Out of the sky
he flies before me
with such beauty and grace
alone in the night
He takes my hand
Together we escape.

We drift above the moonlit sea
between the silver clouds
his gentle voice begins to speak

I'm taking you home,
to where you belong
I will never leave you alone

Where have you been all my life
the constant war the pain and strife
never ending life of despair
why weren't you there?
why did you wait until I died?

A ravishing sight lies before me
descending to paradise
pristine and unharmed
a perfect land, is this the home of christ?

In a state of serenity
we lay beneath the stars
he answers all the questions I ask

why am I here?
Is this my new home?
will this all disappear?

Where have you been all my life
the constant war, the pain and strife
never ending life of despair
why did you wait until I died??
Where have you been all my life
the vile times
the agony
never ending life of despair
were you really watching over me??

A voice begins to call my name,
reminiscent of the one who took my life.

Out of the shadows his face became clear
a life of crime stricken with fear
unafraid I looked him in the eyes
full of sorrow and endless cries
