Too alarming now to talk about
Take your pictures down and shake it out
Truth or consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around
There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary
Don't the best of them bleed it out
While the rest of them Peter out
Truth of consequence, say it aloud
Use that evidence, race it around

Hey Jeff it's me again, Robbie. I guess I just couldn't leave you here alone. It's Midnight, and It's pouring out. It's all right though I'm still here. Just like I said I would be, I wouldn't lie to you Jeff, I never have before and I will not in the Future.

How is it there, away from the people that love you. Gone away to a Place none of us can be, High into the Sky. The place where you will never hurt again. Because Jeff you have already hurt so much. It plays in my mind. A sick twisted movie of your Final Minutes of life.

I remember all to well our final words, The look you gave to me. Of a Friendship could out pass the sands of time. I walked you out to Your brothers car. Waved good-bye to you. Watched as you drove down the empty street. Remembering all we did that day.

You remember don't you Jeff, Seeing the Hardy's wrestle, Seeing your Hero take flight. Meeting them Backstage, Getting your Picture with them. I knew the look in your eyes. That of meaning, You saw what you needed to see. I guess that marked your time to Leave.

To leave me. The last one to see you Happy. Remember that Picture of you and the Hardys, It's hanging on my wall, Never to be forgotten. Just like you Jeff, You won't be forgotten.

It was late, Maybe You should have stayed over, But we didn't know the Roads were Icy. Believe me Jeff If I knew that You would have stayed here, and Today I would still get to see you. Its too late for Maybes now Jeff, They won't bring you back. I can't have you back. I think that's unfair.

I don't know what happened as you drove away, You didn't think it would be the last time you saw me. You had plans for the next Morning I remember. Now the plans have to wait. It started to snow harder Jeff, I watched it from my Window, I could still see your brother's Car driving away. You turned the corner and you were gone, Forever.

What happened next Jeff is still a Blur, I heard the Crash Jeff, You were only Three Blocks away, My heart stopped I told myself it wasn't you. You should always go with your first Instinct. I ran out of my house, hurried down the Street, I saw a Car tipped upside down. I stopped dead in my Tracks, I knew it was you.

I watched from the curb as Paramedics pulled you out, Your body was bruised and bloody, Not the Jeff I once knew. I didn't know it then that you were gone. As I saw them place you on a Stretcher the World seemed to Stop. They went to check on your brother. and I... I made the decision that still haunts me today. I went to you, My mind was Blank, but my feet moved towards you.

Cold on the stretcher, Barely breathing, Barely Moving. I told myself it wasn't you, This was just a Bad dream. And now Jeff looking back, I still wish It was. Because what the Paramedic said next I will take with me to my Grave. I don't think you heard it, So I will repeat it for you. "This kid won't make it to the Hospital."

Harsh reality right Jeff. They gave up on you, I never did. I just stared at you as they Carried your Brother out. I knew he was dead, I could tell from his skin, Pale and bruised as the laid him down on a Stretcher. They stopped in front of me, Told me there was nothing to see.

I explained to them who I was Jeff, I really did. They pushed me aside. I screamed to one who walked past, what caused the Crash. He told me it was Black Ice Jeff. I hope you can laugh at this now Jeff, I stood there in the dead of winter at Two in the Morning wearing no more then Shorts and a Tee Shirt. I didn't care how cold I was. I wanted to find the Ice they said that Caused this.

Fifteen minutes I walked around, I didn't find any ice Jeff. Just so you know, I still don't believe that.

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary
"Kudos", my hero, leaving all the best
You know, my hero, the one that's on

Hard to believe that was Two Years ago, I still see you when I close my eyes, The gentle smile of a young kid, Who didn't know what pain really was.

Your mother couldn't believe it, She had lost her two boys in one day. She was heartbroken Jeff, and just like me, She still is. That was her Baby Boy in the Coffin at the Funeral, Dressed in a Black Suit and Tie. That was my friend, The one that I had known when I was three weeks old.

You looked like you were asleep. I didn't see the pain etched on your face, like it was that night. You Jeff I said my Good-byes, and I did something I never thought I would have to do, I kissed your forehead, and Said Good-bye.

I never had to say good-bye to you before Jeff, I always knew you would be there the next day, just like you were for the past Thirteen years. It's all different now, You not here anymore. I have to brave this world alone.

Alone is a scary thing to be, You feel like no one understands you. That part is true however, Because Jeff for all those years we were to close to describe, We could finish each others sentence, and now I'm here alone, I've lost you, I've lost my out look to a Better life.

I hope you're having a better life, There's no more pain for you is there? You're safe, protected for the rest of time. and I have to stay here and wait for the day I will see you again. It's been two years since that night. God Damn I wish that day would Come.

I feel as if I let you down, I broke a Promise I made to you. I said I would always keep you safe, I lied Jeff. I let you go, I let you die. Please forgive me. You don't know how badly I want to take your place. How badly I wish I was in that Grave.

You had some much to live for, and I have nothing now. No friends, No Life, No dreams, Just the fading Memory of you. You were Three Months older then me, Not that much it you think about it, and still you watched over me like I was a Baby. Protecting me from the reality of life.

I lived so long knowing nothing about the Real World, The only world I knew was the Protected one you gave to me, The world of peace and of Friendship. I got my first taste of the Real World, January Sixteenth. The day the world seemed to stop. The day your light shut off. The Day my life began a new, A life I couldn't spend with you.

I hope you enjoyed hearing me Jeff, I know I enjoyed remembering you, I don't know what else to say, I said my peace, but I still want to stay, I don't know when you will need me again, Hell I know you don't trust me anymore Jeff. You needed me that Night and I let you down. I never meant to let you down, Please Forgive me.

That all I ask, Is for you to Forgive me. I know I can't change the past, I know I can't bring you back, That would be the first thing I would do. I set you free again, I let you live your life. I would be the one protecting you, I know that can never happen.

But Jeff, Can't a Boy dream. Dream of you coming back, Dream of the look in your eyes, Dream of hearing your voice. Dream of having you Back where you belong.

Being back with me. To you Jeff again I say Good-bye, Even though I know I will not be able to go a Day without coming here and saying to you, That I love you more then words could ever describe, and one day we will met again. Then My Friend I will tell the world how great you have truly been.

There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary
There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary
There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary
There goes my hero, watch him as he goes
There goes my hero, he's ordinary

This story is not about Jeff Hardy. It is however about my friend Jeff, who died in a Car Crash January 16, 1999. He was 13, This year on July 07 he would have turned 15, This story is for him, to let him know that just because he is gone, he is not forgotten, To all who read this I hope you enjoy it, I didn't write it for anyone to criticize, I wrote it to remember Jeff, Because I had to watch my hero leave this earth, and he was an ordinary kid who was taken away in his Prime.
