SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The (Unofficial) Song Challenge:   From WYSIWYG -- My ISP is pretty slow today so someone else may want to fish up the correct info, but apparently a Boston funeral director has revived a lady in a body bag at his shop.  Seems she had tried to kill herself and only partially succeeded. And gurgled loud enough that the FD opened up the body bag for a look, and then cleared her airway and called 911. Sounds like the Medical Examiner had to declare her alive before the FD could release the living body to medical authorities, and wow!!! Whatta way to go, and come back again!  Gotta be at least one song in that one! Go to it, 'Cateers!

Only Your Soul by Amergin
(Tune: Only Our Rivers)

When the sun shines in the darkness,
And the hills sink down into the cold sea,
When silence echoes within the city,
It's then that my soul will be free.
I wander the halls of my memories,
And still in the dark mirror I see,
A woman that has never been happy,
And only her soul will run free.

She drinks to the death of her body
Swallowing pills as she cries
Refusing to live in the chains of depression
Her future life was to be denied.
Oh, what secrets do you hold in your memory?
What scars do you bear that none can see?
Will you go like the stars in the morning
And will only your dear soul run free?

What evils forced you into hiding?
What despair drove you to slowly die?
What heartbreak broke your spirit down?
As you laid there, I heard your cry....
What good is life when you're dying?
What good is hope when there's pain?
When sorrow darkens the blazing sunshine
And still only your soul will run free.
