BANE I wish that I could spread my arms so wide That I could wrap them around everyone I've ever known and loved Protect them from the crashing waves The storms that will take us all one at a time The unheard goodbyes that we are never ready to whisper Turning once strong men into lost little boys Standing well dressed staring into six-foot holes Sick of this chill every time the phone rings too early or too late The what-if silences that linger in between Why can't I build a raft strong enough To carry us through the clouds, the flames Or any of that shit that I don't believe in I would do anything not to have to squeeze another trembling body Who was not ready to face life's end Tired of sitting slumped in the corner trying not to come apart As the lines stretch around the building Why does only death show us how much we truly mean to each other The beautiful things that we're not ready to lose or have yet to try Knowledge does not come in books it comes in caskets I don't wanna see how brave we can be anymore I've seen the strength it takes to get past and move on And would trade it all away to know how to keep you here forever Maybe I've grown too old Missed out on the glamour and the glory Just can't see past the tears and the pain Oh please don't bury me in the rain |
