For You

I want to live in an alternative universe
I want to stay alive, or stay buried
I want to live my life long or short

I want to cope with myself and with my broken heart
I want to have my dreams back
I want to create art

I want to live in an alternative universe
Where time doesn't exist
Where you die before birth

I want to live in an alternative universe
Where you are alive
Where I drive a hearse

Tell the ghosts that we never met
Tell my tears to never grow shed
Say the things you want to hear
Bear the burdens you carry to my ear

I want to live in an alternative universe
Where we never left
Where I'm arrested for theft

I dug my grave quite well
You dug one faster though
In it, of your hands, I will forever dwell

I am struggling alone with this chapter
Will the book end or go on
And what will it matter after?
