We aren't dead
But i think about it constantly
Wanting to visit the last place
I remember you and me
How long will it take
For you to realize the mistake
Of leaving me alone
Giving me the freedom to roam
I have seen the end
You popped in my head again
Hundreds of dreams later
And somehow you still slip in
I've closed all the doors
But you sneak in the cracks
It's the small things that bring you back
Driving by the place we always used to eat
Looking in the mirror and in the reflection
It's not only me
You're not too far away
But maybe one day
I'll work up the urge to go back to the place
Where my heart lays still and my mind is lame
Because recently I've been acting insane
Sleepless nights are common baby
But maybe talking to you
Will maybe just remind you
That happiness can come in many shapes
And sizes
And since I haven't seen you
my mind has tattooed your face
on the back of my eyelids
