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
