[Verse] Thirty years since we ran those halls Painted dreams on locker walls Now your name's just a whisper A shadow falls I heard the news It cut me deep One shot stole the breath you'd keep Questions screaming loud But answers sleep [Prechorus] How does the clock keep turning When the hands feel frozen still [Chorus] One shot to the silence One life undone Left two boys staring at the sun This holiday’s colder The laughter’s gone One shot to the silence And you’re gone [Verse 2] A family gathers round the tree An empty chair where you should be They wrap their grief in light for all to see Cops chasing leads A ghost they seek But justice feels so frail So weak I scream your name But echoes don’t speak [Prechorus] How does a heart keep beating When it’s shattered When it’s still [Chorus] One shot to the silence One life undone Left two boys staring at the sun This holiday’s colder The laughter’s gone One shot to the silence And you’re gone
