Oh Geeeeesh, icy! Sent chills down my spine!

And as I walked into the darkness
the stranger at my back
called my name as though a friend.

I stumbled and turned
the alcohol still burned

and he smiled at my last will of generosity
telling me, "My friend, don't you see?"

Lay your bottle down and let its dream fade
for you are your destiny, not some curse made.

Your kindness toward me though your life running short
was enough to warm my heart and your future's path distort.

You'll always have a friend in me
if you remember to love your family

love yourself and let the emptiness fill
let your heart shake off its icy chill

"But... how'd you know my name?"
only silence was the answer that came.

He disappeared into night's limberlost
and then softly came the sigh,
"You were worth bearing that cross"
