My Chemical Romance
Sunsets pass, grass keeps
growing, over your grave and
around your mausoleum.
Tarnished and faded names,
just like your ghost. It's not like
we ever planned this, but it's
not like we never saw it
coming.
Since when is fighting it
easy...even when you were
fighting for me.
Gurneys weren't built to chase
hearses but they had already
prepared for you.
I knew the chemicals were
against us but I thought we had
more time.
I knew you were past gone,
that you couldn't hang on much
longer, but I sat by you and
held onto you as long as I
could.
I couldn't think of you as one
more I'd lost.
I couldn't get past the infinite
abyss that would take your
place.
I will never get past you but I
know to carry on until my time
comes to be in your arms
forever.
