Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm tired of being brave
Acting as if I'm sane
I play the part, but they tell me, "Wait"
These absinth gods bearing my name
[Verse 2]
And if I die before I wake
Please, pray for me to fly
My ash will rise amongst the flames
The sky screams out my name
[Verse 3]
Dream me back into my mother
Dream me back and start me over
Let me lead, you can follow
Into the body of an unborn child
[Verse 4]
If I die before I wake
Please, pray for me to fly
My ash will rise amongst the flames
The sky screams out my name
[Verse 5]
I've got a secret or two that no eyes can see
When I get to Heaven, save a seat for me
I've got a secret or two that no eyes can see
When I get to Heaven, save a seat for me
I've got a secret or two that no eyes can see
When I get to Heaven, save a seat for me
[Verse 6]
If I die before I wake
Please, pray for me to fly
My ash will rise amongst the flames
The sky screams out my name
[Verse 7]
And if I die before I wake
Please, pray for me to fly
My ash will rise amongst the flames
The sky screams out my name
[Verse 8]
And if I die before I wake
Please, pray for me to fly
My ash will rise amongst the flames
The sky screams out my name
