I always like a song called Long Night by this Canadian band, Rawlins Cross. They wrote this song Long Night for one of their dear friends who passed away. The song was written for the “wake” for their friend. What is a wake? You can check it out yourself. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wake_(ceremony)
Whenever there is a death, friends and family always get together to remember the deceased at the funeral. Thousands of deaths in Myanmar and Sichuan did not have the opportunities to be remembered. In fact, some could not even be found. A tragedy such as these large scaled disasters somehow has brought people closer together and truly shown humanity that was rooted deeply in every one of us. (Well, most of us, I guess.)
Here is the song for those whose lives were lost and those who lost their loved ones.

Long Night
By Rawlins Cross

Long night
So this is what it all comes to
Oh long night
This is what we all go through
Oh long night
Another friend is gone
Oh long night
Leaving us to carry on
Death is a mighty unitor
The defeat that comes to every fighter
Live on the dawn will be brighter
Live on
Live on
Live on
Long night
Let me be with you
Oh long night
I feel you need it too
Oh long night
Rolling in each others’ arms
Oh long night
Keep each other safe from harm
Love is a mighty unitor
The night can only get slighter
Love on the dawn will get brighter
Love on
Love on
Love on
Long night
This is what it all comes to
Oh long night
This is what we all go through
Oh long night
Another friend is gone
Oh long night
Leaving us to carry on
Death is a mighty unitor
The defeat that comes to every fighter
Live on the dawn will be brighter
Live on
Live on
Live on...
