Lyrics
When I light the flame
I still feel haunted
Place another rose upon your grave
And I walk away
When I told him I was set on leaving
Doctor said "you're clinically insane"
And "take two a day"
I'm in and out of a hospital bed
Introduced to another illness
I don't want to be awake for too long
But I keep on calling your name
It's been about seven years of sessions
You were put away from an indiscretion
I don't want to stick around for too long
Is that so wrong?
I recall you'd kept me laughing, crying
Stating all the pros of dying young
The cons were next to nothing
In a minute
I'll be your co-pilot
Bathing in the ultraviolet ray
I don't want to wait
I'm in and out of a hospital bed
Introduced to another illness
I don't want to be awake for too long
But I keep on calling your name
It's been about seven years of sessions
You were put away from an indiscretion
I don't want to stick around for too long
Is that so wrong?
So what if I'm gone?
Would it mean I'd be able to breathe in your oxygen?
So what if I'm gone?
Would it mean I'd be able to sleep in your arms again?
When the word is out
I've found my calling
Place another rose upon my grave
And then walk away
If you ask me why
I'll make it honest
Watch the way the pieces fall in place
You won't feel a thing
