The Obituary

Waves crash on the shore The truth hides behind those rocks Locked my heart in a vault The moment I knew it all So I might cross the bar like Tennyson Unless I'm not right I'll bury the skeletons Soon they'll turn into ghosts How funny they never really lived But I have to change my mind And as the rain pours The old roses still grow I'd be here tomorrow If you wanted to All or nothing So I've been writing the obituary of you And burnt the pages How dare the sun still shine? When everything seems so dark No room to be sad But grieving has to be hard So why I'm not crying day and night? I guess he was not the one And as the rain pours The old roses still grow I'd be here tomorrow If you wanted to All or nothing So I've been writing the obituary of you And burnt the pages And I was made to run But the inferno still burns Like the letters on the desk Yeah, soon I will forget The rain will erase the struggle of those days And I'll walk alone till I get home
