Goodbye, Alexi

You flashed a smile
Held a note
Mesmerized us with lyrics you wrote 
The world will miss the way
You made sparks fly from 
The fretboard of your guitar
When we didn't want to be loved 
You gave us the Hatecrew 
You inspired us to be more 
Than rosy flesh and bleached bone 
Heaven is richer today by a candidate 
Who knew how to speak words of power 
Rest, Alexi
Your memory lives on
The Hatecrew lives on

In loving memory of Alexi Laiho
