Great Divide
2011 · Zack Smith
You fell across the great divide
You fell and vanished out of sight
Sat on the edge there wond’rin’ why
Alone, alone, alone I cried
I called you father
You called me friend
You’re my beginning and my end
Without a shepherd
A sheep will ever roam
It was my fault you died tonight
It was my misstep you set right
I screamed your name to hear you call out from the black
The empty chasm echoes back
I made my mind up
You laid your life down
Don’t know what you got 'til it’s gone
Without a lighthouse
A ship will sail past home
