I was right there, while you fought tooth and nail Gasping in the gas mask, thrashing 'til you disappeared Say you're not scared That you know it's because I cared and Say you know I love you, and that hope was just not there And I know, I know that I'm wrong That when you're gone, you're gone And I can't bring you home But I want, I want to believe That you'll remember me When you're just memory Roots in the ground Or uploaded to the cloud, or Warm inside our hearts or as electrons in our head, nowhere now Over the rainbow, can I stop by and say hello? And sorry, I would take it back if I could, but I know To love one from too far to call Is not to love at all To whom is it I talk? But I want, I want to believe That you can still hear me When you're just memory Said, "It's okay" "And it'll all be over soon" "I'd never let a bad thing happen to you" "Now, goodnight, I love you!" And every, everybody dies Fighting for their lives Just trying to survive Well, now I know, I know why we say That there's a better place That waits beyond the grave Oh, oh And I know, I know it's not true There's just no more you But as long as there's no proof Then I choose, I choose to believe That we'll meet in sweet dreams After you're put to sleep
