Lyrics

I drive past cemeteries
On my commute to work
Makes me think too hard about
The time that I've got left on earth
The legacy that I'll leave
What the engraving
On my headstone will read
Was I enough
To keep a fire burning in someone?
Can only hope
That they'll remember me
For who I was
Not my mistakes
Or all the shortfalls that led me astray
I'll never know
I've always been the outcast
Too short and extra loud
Playing picture perfect
Just to try and make my parents proud
I know I'm still the weak link
And once I'm gone
I'm scared I still won't belong
I learned to hide
All of the greatest things about myself
Thought they were flaws
But eventually, I figured out
Rewriting me isn't a story worth remembering
I'll let her go
Let her go
Oh, in the aftermath
I sit alone in silence
Nothing's happened yet
I'm a silhouette
Just going through the motions
No one taught me how to cope with
Existential dread
I'm stuck in my head
Better than in the ground
The afterlife would wear me down fast
Hope they move me slow
Out of house and home
High strung, psychosomatic
Change is too abrupt to manage
Not a trial run
The damage is done
Was I worth anything
to anyone passing cemeteries?
My time still hasn't come yet
Nothing is set in stone
Anxious as I wait
Cause any day now
Life could come and go
I'll try to make the most of it
Hold memories in place
And put off my fate
Don't wanna waste
Any second of the time allotted
Say my goodbyes
And try to do all of the things I promised
Knowing what I know
Would it be easier to die alone?
I'll never know
