If you wait for me you will meet death alone
Because I will never be caught dying with you
Keep moving, don't look behind your shoulders
There is nothing behind you, but mere shadows

Don't tell anyone I had been with you lately
They'd never believe a single word you breathe
Don't try to convince them, they'll get infuriated
Wipe off your sheepish grin and follow your heart

Don't stop listening to your heart - not once
If you do, your heart will stop beating forever
But you'll not die anyway, you'll stop existing
Like the shadows behind you, you'll diminish

And if you wait for me you will meet death alone
I'm forever August, I'll never be caught dying with you
