You can find a way
To stop thinking about it,
When every minute is a lifetime.
The pain will go away.
You won't believe, but it's true.
Just count the inches on your lifeline.
And I hate to be the one
Telling you that everything's okay.
'Cause what kind of god would give you life,
And take it all away?
Oh, but I don't want to be in your life,
If you don't.
And I don't want to wake in your arms,
If you won't.
Be alive when I need you the most,
Not to say that I won't.
Grieve a little when you pass away,
When you pass away.
You can find a place
And start thinking about it.
When every second is the right time,
The pain will go away.
You won't believe, but it's true.
Just count the inches on your lifeline.
And I hate to be the one
Telling you that everything's okay.
'Cause what kind of god would give you life,
And take it all away?
Oh, but I don't want to be in your life,
If you don't.
And I don't wanna wake in your arms,
If you won't.
Tell me everything you needed to be,
Is everything that I am,
Everything that you fear,
About me.
What you fear about me.
You'll come back for all the wrong reasons.
Maybe your life was out of season.
You can't breathe
When you don't have a reason to die.
And someday soon when the memory has faded,
We'll defend all the lives we once hated.
And I'll be there, baby, glad that you made it alive.
I don't want to be in your life.
