Where were you when Jean , carl, too many to mention asked why, why not?
Where were you when we ran around like mice searching for grains of sand to build a castle.
Where were you when we laughed , smiled cried and yes died for YOU to jump appropriate gear.
Where were you when we walked into court and yes 'twas me.
Where were you when we buried our friends,wifes, husbands, brothers and children for you to jump.
Where were you at 4 AM when those families call you with sadness, Anger, love to understand why?
Where were you when we tossed our rigs to hold a friends hand and wait?
Where were you when we kissed arse, complained, stood in line, sniveled to jump the load only to spend three days in the heat, spend your wifes vacation fund(not appropriate), for a chance to work security, get coffee, and be shunned to watch your mates jump.
Where were you at 2am 3am 4am hell all bloody month/year spending countless hours ignoring your wife just to prepare others to help You /ME ou on that day when yes YOU made a mistake.
....thanks lads
Where were you when your boss said you leave, "I can't secure your job" to re-learrn, remind. reteach others that day.....when only three of you show up.
Where were you three days before three days after....
...Smiling/thanking....the fantastic people of the holiday Inn when thet walk out of ....your room with 3 dollars in quaters and you hand them your last $20.
Where were you when our friends needed their gear taken uptop when their friends were hurt....but YOU needed another jump.
Where were you when OUR brother/sisters/yes even you needed aride home from the hospital.

Where were You when others Yelled, screamed, bitched at registration to a woman who has only your thoughts in mind.

AND LASTLY WERE ARE YOU TODAY......

Cheers NIk

Where were you when I was burned and broken
While the days slipped by from my window watching

Where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless
Because the things you say and the things you do surround me

While you were hanging yourself on someone elses words
Dying to believe in what you heard
I was staring straight into the shining sun


Lost in thought and lost in time
While the seeds of life
and the seeds of change were planted

Outside the rain fell dark and slow
While I pondered on this dangerous and irresistable pastime

I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the moment had arrived
For killing the past and coming back to life

I took a heavenly ride through our silence
I knew the waiting had begun
And headed straight...into the shining sun
