have you ever thought about your own funeral
thought about who’d attend, friends and family
have you ever tried to see the tears in their eyes
do you recognise their faces
i’ve been thinking too much about this
it keeps me from falling asleep at night
i don’t care who would miss me
i don’t care how many seats stay empty
all i care about is you, you’re the reason my heart still beats
you’re the only reason that i breath
what happens when i flee
away from everything we used to be
what happens when i flee
away from everything, from you and me
from you and me and everything we used to be
would you ever forgive me if i leave you like this
would you try to understand
would you think of the good years instead of the bad
would you love to remember or would you try to forget me
i’d like to know when i’m gone, how fast you’d move on
how long will it take for me to disappear
how long for your lips to form my name the last time and it stops
how long will it take before you find someone else to hold you
and will he hold you like i do, will he love you like i do
will he comfort and adore you at least as much as i do
i’d like to think you’ll be fine without me
i’d like to think you’ll move on without me
GOODBYE
