My daughter was born an albino, eyes of blood
She took to life as she was taken from it, far too young
Her sister mottled in silence, grew tall as an evergreen
She lived longer than she should have, whiskers peppered with cream
The hangman calls and comes for us all
My sweaty hands fumble as I let the curtain fall
The drugs catch me off guard, so I pull to the side of the road
The choir of judgment corrals me and I pray for death, please let me go
The hangman calls and comes for us all
But my sweaty hands fail to let the curtain fall
What could I have done to keep her from dying?
My God, what could I have done?
All it takes is one heart to reach the sun
Take a breath and feel love, forever one
Forever one
