At a Funeral

I can see myself at a funeral And I can’t defend myself I can hear the stories about me As I watch my friends in stealth. I could have been a better person And I can’t change any past I can see the truths around me And I want to make them last I want to see a tomorrow And I can’t believe we’ll fail I can see the history happening And I feel a check in the mail. I need to have been better And I can’t cherish what is not I can hear the past coming And I love all not forgot I can see myself in heaven And I hear my mom and dad I can know the world is waiting Am I the one that saw the bad I did see things I love And I loved the things I saw I can feel the love of everyone And I write the scene I draw I can be gone and not be here And I miss the things going on I can forget each day not remembered But my love for you’s not gone
