Brief Apologies in Death
I just had to tell you
im sorry for the things i said that day
I just had to tell you
that I will meet you in death
with red roses...
I know that you won't remember me
when i'm standing there
consumed by hate and guilt...
I know i promised i wouldn't do it
and i know i promised you I'd say goodbye
but in my moment
of eager hate
mixed with courage and pain
I lost sight...
Know that the sad nothing you tried to save
Was destined to die
and that that sad nothing loved you...
And may you remember these words
when you find yourself walking
down a dark corridor
not able to remember how you got there...
I will be the one standing with the roses
waiting...
and waiting...
I'll understand if you walk by
pretending not to see...
