***** out the candle
Jump off the edge
The only thing she couldn't handle
The only promise she crossed her fingers

Mother would like to think a spirit lingers
Nothing else could keep her here
The bee with a deadly sting
The hooded man instilling fear

Father would like to never die
He says he won't so he doesn't cry
He says he'll float around the sky
He says a lie

I would like to not know death
I can't stop to imagine a moment without thought
I would like to hold onto every breath
But I won't win this war I fought

The walls will cave
The fire will consume
We'll lose the brave
And stay in our tomb
