Realize
When tears fall from your eyes
I hope you finally start to realize
How good you had it with me
Now that I'm gone can you see
No one will love you as much as I
I gave you every part of my heart
You just took it and tore it apart
I hope your happy with what you chose
I'll continue to lay here and decompose
Until finally I hope that I'll depart
With you I felt on top of the world
I had no idea what you had unfurled
But now I'm that same man, no
Now you've got me six feet below
As I lay in my tomb, curled
I hear the scrap and scratch
Of insects over this vegetable patch
And I realize that even in this twist of fate
I still continue to wait
Because even in death I want you back
