You & I Would Die

You were lying on my chest And told me I like darkness That it soothes me and I find It comforting. Though happiness And I are really not the best At getting on, I thought we tried I should say your assessment Wasn't wrong, but it's just I didn't know you were right And then I sat there in the silence Ignorin' what you'd said I should've known that it was time Did you think you'd be in California when you and I would die? From that funny little moment We would hardly be speaking Up until it was time To talk about the ending Of the two of us as one and That maybe more could make it right Can we just talk about the end and How we know now it was just timing? There's no need to take a side Yes I surely hope you miss me I know that's really not how it should be Baby I want you to be alright Did you think you'd be in California when you and I would die? Now, to face the truth, which is That you've finished your dissertation And it's time to take a ride To upstate New York. The city is Far, but close enough if I'm moving To that coast to realize My dreams. Am I just dreaming? Is this the end? Or am I just scheming To keep keeping on you and I? Now it's the end, oh yes it is And I know I'll be ok with it But not until after we say goodbye Did you think you'd be in California when you and I would die?
