The story-
Cody Rocamontes a would have started his sophomore year at Martin High School, died at about 12:40 a.m Friday morning(August 7, 2009) at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth after he was struck by a car on the entrance ramp to Interstate 20 Thursday afternoon. He was injured about 3:30 p.m. Thursday while walking west on the outside shoulder of the I-20 entrance ramp. He was struck by a 1999 Ford Taurus driven by 66-year-old Patsy Smith Wilson of Fort Worth. She was getting on the highway when she drove on to the shoulder and hit him. The double-lane ramp merges into a single lane where she drove onto the shoulder. Then he was taken to John Peter Smith Hospital where he died from his injures. A woman who answered the door at the Rocamontes' home Friday morning, declined to identify herself, but said the teenager usually walked against traffic so that he could see if danger was coming his way. She also said that he was visiting his girlfriend(at 4:46 in the video) who lived near the I-20 exit. Cody was an avid skateboarder with aspirations of competing professionally. -Taken from the Star Telegram and revised.



I took these photos off his MySpace, and other people's MySpace's and Facebook's without asking them, because nobody would return messages.. I don't own ANY photos or ANY clips seen in this video. I don't own the audio either. I chose Angels Fall First by Nightwish because I think the lyrics of the song and message it sends out is very meaningful for this, No copywrite infringement intended.

Lyrics:
An angelface smiles to me
Under a headline of tragedy
That smile used to give me warmth
Farewell - no words to say
Beside the cross on your grave
And those forever burning candles

Needed elsewhere
To remind us of the shortness of our time
Tears laid for them
Tears of love tears of fear
Bury my dreams dig up my sorrows
Oh Lord why
The angels fall first

Not relieved by thoughts of Shangri-La
Nor enlightened by the lessons of Christ
I'll never understand the meaning of the right
Ignorance lead me into the light

Needed elsewhere
To remind us of the shortness of our time
Tears laid for them
Tears of love tears of fear
Bury my dreams dig up my sorrows
Oh Lord why
The angels fall first

Sing me a song
Of your beauty
Of your kingdom
Let the melodies of your harps
Caress those whom we still need

Yesterday we shook hands
My friend,
Today a moonbeam lightens my path
My guardian.
