Before I Die

March 9th, 2024

Trying to figure out my life
I feel caught in the middle
But in the universe
I feel so little
I’m lost in the flow
Life is a vicious cycle
At the end of it all
There’s no chance of survival
We all face our own problems
Mine feel so small
But when they consume me
I’m feeling it all
I know that in the end
We’re all going to die
I just hope I find happiness
Before I have to say goodbye

Bye

Fine, leave me faster than a shooting star flies
That’s how it went – yeah
If that’s how it’s going to be
Here’s what I have to say

[Chorus:]
Go where you want to go
Be where you want to be
See what you want to see 
Then live what you want to live

Bye
That’s the last one you’ll ever hear
Yeah
Adios, see you later señor – not

I said bye
Gotta go
See you later – not
Bye

[Chorus:]
Go where you want to go
Be where you want to be
See what you want to see
Then live what you want to live

Don’t Come Back (Part 2)

You might be a vegan
But you caught me like a fish in a hook
I’m begging you to release me
I don’t belong on a shelf like a book
You have more compassion for animals
You try to oversimplify
By telling me you don’t know what you want
But you still won’t say goodbye
I told you that was all I needed
I couldn’t have you disappear again
Then I don’t hear from you
Going against calling me a friend
There’s no basic respect
You want what you want
You say you don’t know what that is
But you know what it’s not
There’s a lump in my throat
I don’t know what to do with
I say that I don’t cry
But I need to release this
I let one tear go
But there’s so much more
I’ve bottled up everything
To not be who I was before
And I lay myself down
In all my broken pieces
I’m trying to convince myself
That I really don’t need this
Because I loved you as a person
I don’t know if I felt more
But what do I do with this love
You don’t want anymore
I pretend that I don’t care
But you know that’s a lie
How can I let this go
When you couldn’t say bye
So I will use my words
To strike this match
And burn our bridge
You can’t have me back
