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.
