Forever they had me fooled, the fake flowers on my nightstand Kept watering them, kept them in the sun, Pools forming in the light sand You’re buried too, Not as close, it’s a fifty-mile drive I don’t mind it though, I do it for you, I think every time I arrive You’ve had me fooled as well, these flowers you can’t receive And although these are real, they’re just there to help me grieve

Keeping things alive
She was always so kind, this lover of mine Shared all her bread, shared all her wine She could see right through me, past the face of despair Saw my lingering soul, while brushing my hair I was never alone, when it was just us two But I made one mistake, I forgot about you You could never acknowledge, the hospital staff Their faces serious, all you could was laugh Now the lights cover me, you by my side You always loved me but death was your bride It’s getting darker, in the sterilized room If I can’t marry you, the end will be my groom Both of us together, both of us dead At least in the end we can finally wed
