Leave My Casket Open...

(album: Nonfiction - 2021)

It all started with a joke, it's like that
He didn't have the words to fight back
So, the rumors spread down the halls
Off the walls into his head
It was Monday morning, he stayed in bed
Waiting 'til his parents left
He walked alone out to the shed
No one heard him when he left

When I pass leave my casket open
And send it out to the ocean
I wanna feel alive with the motion
I just wanna feel alive with the motion
When I pass leave my casket open
And send it out to the ocean
I wanna feel alive with the motion
I just wanna feel alive with the motion

Your words cut deep like a paper cut
From a razor blade
I tried to tape it up
But the tape broke
So, the blood flowed
And I couldn't stop the bleeding from the cut throat
Oh, say do you see that the words we say can
Save a life or take a life?
I don't wanna be another sacrifice
Think twice, you might

All of the things we said to you
Who knew we'd be the death of you?
I wish I was a friend to you
We're sorry

All of the things we said to you
Who knew we'd be the death of you?
I wish I was a friend to you
We're sorry

When I pass leave my casket open
And send it out to the ocean
I wanna feel alive with the motion
I just wanna feel alive with the motion
When I pass leave my casket open
And send it out to the ocean
I wanna feel alive with the motion
I just wanna feel alive with the motion

We're sorry
We didn't mean to
Make you feel lonely
We really miss you
I know that it's not fair
It's you who's not here
It feels like a nightmare
We really miss you
We really miss you
