Old Friend

• Artist: Russian Artist
• Description: We all know that people own guns for protection and power. We use these weapons to find violent solutions, and end the lives of those who are believed to be evil. But what happens when we one day, out of carelessness hurt the ones we love. We are left broken, confused, and alone. It is sad that we depend on this murderous objects to obtain meaningless victories when our voices, our hearts are just as powerful.

Goodbye my dear friend
Who I hold so close
Whos power you selflessly lend
Who helped me destroy my foes
You are my savior
You are my love
You are always in my favor
You send my enemies to the above
I love you my gun
I praise you my avenger
You are one I will never shun
But now I must bury you, one so tender
I must run away, take flight
Or suffer the never ending fight

You have served me in war, as partner and friend
You kept me safe and out of harms way
But this last, this final, goodbye, is a neccessary end
Forgive me for my tears, but there is more I can say
You are also destuctive, and as cold as the endless winter
You never try to listen, and take the lives of the innocent
In the eyes of the people, of God, you are a sinner
You power, your strength, you use it as repent
Goodbye my enemy, my greed, my ambition
It is time I bury you, your lies, and my denial
We both in truth are weak, creating fear, anger and deseption
Because of you, Imust leave, I must disappear for a long while
Because of you, I am dead
Because of you, I let my leave be unsaid
