When We Die

(album: Blessed Are Those - 2016)

When we die, die alone.
When we die, let's go home.

When she walks,
Daisies and rain fall from her
Eyelids to the ends of the earth.
Everything's growing again.

When she cries,
Sparrows and crows lose their wings.
For they're simply missing the spring.
Winter is coming again.

I notice my breath getting colder.
I notice your breath getting shorter.
I notice the heart in my chest getting heavy
And both of my lungs getting older.

I notice our bodies together.
Oh God, I just want that forever.

When we die.
Let's die alone, die alone.
That way only you and I.
Will know where we go, where we go.
Maybe we'll be alright
And maybe we won't, maybe we won't.

When we die, when we die.
Let's just go home.

When she falls,
Heaven and all in between.
Pray that one day maybe they'll be
able to hold her again.

And her blood,
flows in the veins of the trees.
Breathing stardust into the leaves.
Everything's changing again.

I notice my breath getting colder.
I notice your breath getting shorter.
I notice the heart in my chest getting heavy.
And both of my lungs getting older.

I notice our bodies together.
God, I just want that forever.

When we die.
Let's die alone, die alone.
That way only you and I.
Will know where we go, where we go (where we go).
Maybe we'll be alright and
maybe we won't, maybe we won't.

When we die, when we die.
Let's just go home.
When we die, die alone.
Ooh, ooh. Be alright.
When we die, die alone.
When we die, let's go home.
