My Last Day On Earth

(album: Always, Then, & Now - 2014)

If this were my last day on earth
I wouldn't cry
If you tried to sell me another year or two
I wouldn't buy
There's something dark, ugly, but beautiful crawling underneath my skin
Not every black thread sews something suitable
So tell me how you know so much about somewhere you've never been

Picture frame
Picture perfect
Picture all you've ever wanted
And since you refuse to picture both
Does that make you safer
Or more likely to be haunted?

I've come a long way
Traveled so far
Searching for this meeting of the minds but if eyes are windows to the soul
You've drawn the blinds
Drawn the blinds
Drawn the blinds

If this were my last day on earth
I wouldn't cry
Classic take on an old modern wake
To say good bye

Simply charmed
A little dangerous
Never to alive in the morning
We came unarmed
But there was change for us
