Before I Wake

Before I Wake - Farewell

Out in the starless darkness

The city smiled on itself

Traffic signals switched from green to red

I searched your body for evidence

Under a dogwood canopy

Your hand in mine frozen in time

Who would've guessed life as we knew was ending

So don't cry we'll be alright

Once I get you cleaned up babe we'll run away

But if you die before I wake

Have my heart it's yours to take

A sacrifice for our sake

I'd give my whole life for you any day

Daylight drew the sickness

I brush the bangs from your face

While watching your eyes turn from green to red

Back in our old apartment

Collecting dust on a shelf

The memories of you and me

Incinerate from under futhered timber

So don't cry we'll be alright

Once we get you picked up babe we'll run away

But if you die before I wake

Have my heart it's yours to take

A sacrifice for our sake

I'd give my whole life for you any day

Love of mine

Call out if it eats you from the inside

Out of time

But be sure I'll be all yours I'll be on the side

Sometimes it's harder to stay alive

But if you die before I wake

Have my heart it's yours to take

A sacrifice for our sake

I'd give my whole life for you any day

But if you die before I wake

Have my heart it's yours to take

A sacrifice for our sake

I'd give my whole life for you any day
