sing this at my wake
sing this at my wake: we are so far away from home i am the static on a broken pay-phone and as the flickered street lights try in vain to light the way i'l stray from them taking my life into my hands this is the coldest that i have ever been and every tired heartbeat pulls and strains to find the strenght to fill my veins tonight so if i die in my sleep don't light a candle for me for every heart that i broke for every lie that that i spoke if i don't make it to the sunrise was i good enough in your eyes? did i do everything i could to live a life that i should? now as the years leave their mark on my face they take a piece of my soul i can never replace and i hope that you know how i loved you to death i'll see you when we're laid to rest for good so if i die in my sleep don't light a candle for me for every heart that i broke for every lie that that i spoke if i don't make it to the sunrise was i good enough in your eyes? did i do everything i could to live a life that i should? we only get one chance to make it we only get one chance to do this right we only get one chance to make it did i do everything i could to fly? on the longest hour of the coldest night i will be lying awake nursing swollen eyes thinking how i could change i could sacrifice to make it all right all right again
