if i die tomorrow
would this song live on forever
and here is my
unopened letter to a world
that never shall reply
from this second storey window
i can hear the churchbells calling out my name
this table is set for one
even angels would be homesick in this forsaken town
on random notes of parchment
im scrawling my existence
dressed in white.
this candle radiates throughout the nite
and its never burning out.
never burning out
from this second storey window
i can hear the children down on main street
theyre singing their songs tonite
in the shadows i will listen
to their every movement
mr higginson, am i not good enough for the world?
am i destined only to die
the same way that i lived -- in seclusion?
but high up on this mountain
i can almost see your lonely windowsill
that ill carry you off tonite
theres a ghost in your old bedroom
and a candle burning bright
if i die tomorrow
would this song live on forever?

Everything is turning grey, but I won't hold my breath today
Cause' I'm not scared and to tell the truth I just don't care.
Are you looking for an answer?
When you still don't know the question.
It's like lighting candles in the rain-
Sometimes life can be a pain,
But don't give up without a fight.
Sometimes when you feel afraid, don't give up and run away.
Cause' two wrongs don't make a right.
What's the point in crying when you've done nothing wrong.
It was right there all along.
The world's nothing but a lie and everyone is going to die
But what can I say? Just help me make it through today.
You don't need a destination just to go somewhere in life.
It's like throwing feathers at the wind
They come right back to you again.
So why not give it one more try?
Just cause' things aren't what they seem
It doesn't mean you shouldn't dream
Just don't get your hopes to high.
Cause' when things don't turn out right
You world comes crashing down.
