I wish I could've been there,
To inhale your last breath,
To see your last glance,
I would've had the chance
to tell you the things I couldn't say before
Out of fear and for the love of disappointment,
Due to selfishness and because of the distance
You were as far away as the guide sign pointing at my door
Why couldn't you wait to run after I closed my eyes to count your footsteps as you slipped away into the shadows.
You said that you loved me
Why did you decide to do me this way?
I know that this isn't your fault...all things lie in the hands that no one sees but believe in...
You reached the end of your line,
All aboard...
You're the passenger with two tickets to Forever
but you forgot to take me along...
I guess I would've been the extra baggage weighing you down...
In truth I am the conductor of this sad tale...
I heard that you did all that you could
to save all that we had
On the faces of ticking clocks with hands spinning counter-clockwise in the midst of my lies
Your face was to the fan
Trying to inhale the air that left you so long ago
I would've helped you
Had I known...
That you were the only passenger to Forever
I guess I would've been the baggage weighing you down
Now I'm the conductor of this sad tale
Now that day replays inside my head
How I touched your hand as they closed that lid
Burying bitter dreams forever and ever
I never believed in Amen.
