What Is Death

What is death? A mystery I can never solve Or even understand I don’t think any human can What is death? A question no one ever gave me an answer for Well not the one I need I’ve been living in confusion since the day I lost you They told me: tomorrow you will forget They told me: Tomorrow everything will be better How can I forget? When everything reminds me of you What is death? I can never find an answer or even understand You were here and now you are gone You were there and now you are not I hold the phone to call you Cause I can never believe that you won’t answer I see your grave I read your name a thousand times In order to believe and yet It might be someone else the same name as you Am I losing my mind? For nothing makes sense to me Will it ever do? Will I ever understand? How you were just right there And now simply now you are not They tell me you are in heaven You are gone But yet they say he will never leave he is always in our heart You are either there or not You can’t be not here and yet in my heart I don’t want you to be in my heart I want to call you And I want you to answer I don’t want to hear tomorrow will be better I think I’m faking it Why do I even care? Questions in my mind Maybe a way to make my self-feel better Why do I even care? But I do I need you here I need you now I need to call you And I need you to answer I don’t want to understand death I don’t want death I don’t believe in death It’s a lie they created to take you way from me
