That Day

I remember that moment clear as day,

The accident that would end it all,

I would spend time by the bay,

Your favorite place to stay,

I slowly started to drink alcohol,

I remember that moment clear as day,

The funeral was today,

When I arrived I could not handle what I saw,

I would spend time by the bay,

Slowly I would drift away,

The alcohol was helping me forget what I would not want to recall,

I remember that moment clear as day,

As I watched the children on the beach play,

Throwing at each other small snowballs,

I would spend time by the bay,

Slowly but surely I started to stray,

All of my close friends noticing my withdrawal,

I remember that moment clear as day,

I would spend time by the bay.
