Dimebag


He spoke for the last time to his brother,
Then took that final walk on stage,
The gunman rushed out of the crowd,
Firing,
Firing,
Firing,
He lay dead,
His guitar still alive and screaming,
He was my hero,
We had never met but still I felt bereaved,
He died for nothing,
For no reason,
But to millions of fans he will never die,
I’ll remember him forever,
Listen to him forever,
You showed me what it was all about.
Thank you.

A legend.
Such a man will never die. He will live long even though his heart has stopped beating. Amazing guitars too. Did you happen to read the tribute to dimbag on metal hammer magazine?
