Never Born
I see you all at my funeral
I smell the lilacs in June
Jamie orates my eulogy
I really like his new suit
All these dudes in all these suits
All these girls who pretend to know me
My parents, my sisters, my brother
Just stare as I sleep
I’m not leaving in sadness
I’m not leaving at all
I’ve been here forever
And not a second too long
Don’t let me
Cause I’ll trick ya
Don’t let me see you so sad
If I could take you to heaven
Don’t you doubt that I would
But I don’t save no souls
I can’t save my own
If I knew where I was headed
Think I’d already be gone
Can you smell those lilacs?
They got no burden to spare
The gentle breath of all good things
Humbling bliss unaware
As I stretch out to heaven
I see the place where I’m from
The pretty town and its blinking lights
I see the room I was born
I see my friends from my childhood
I smell the lilacs in June
I once reveled in sadness
I always gave up too soon
Don't turn to darkness
Don't turn your soul
And if I told you we live forever
Would you ever believe?
I love you so much more than forever
But now it's time for sleep
