Heem Wasn't There

I don't know what comes next
A six foot hole, a golden fence
To live forever never had much appeal to me

I don't care for getting help
I'll drink all day and hurt myself
I won't move on
If all the memories are washed into grey

I know you can't live forever but maybe just one more week
I don't think there's a god who could love you as much as me
I'd put the gun in my mouth if I knew they were down to do the trade
I know you can't live forever
The infinite stages of grief

I don't know what comes next
A family home, a steady check
The smell of roses from the suburb I settle out east
I see that road from where I'm at but tie my shoes and walk right back
I'll never stray from the place where you still feel alive to me

I know you can't live forever but maybe just one more week
I know there isn't a god who could love you as much as me
I'd put the gun in my mouth if I knew it would keep you here to stay
I know you can't live forever
The infinite stages of grief
