The wind blew much colder
In that long and lonely year
I took a few more chances
Learned I could be bolder
And no regrets kept me near
I didn't give in to fear
Many soldiers died
And the angels cried
My faith often faltered
And I never made it to the alter
Love was still an illusion
But the fire inside still burned
Hope went out the window
As my hunger made me thinner
But the pain made me stronger
I looked a little closer
Took life a little slower
Gained allot of wisdom
But I was glad to see it go
Good-bye 2003
Now you're just another memory
