[Verse 1]

Please don't try to change my mind, your struggling makes me weak

They're taking you away from me, you cannot even speak

Now my body feels so empty and so cold

They told me "kill what's killing you", but now I'm all alone

[Chorus]

I fell in love with a promise, a shell of what you could be

In another life, I will hold you

Raphael, don't you cry for me

I will sing to you someday

[Verse 2]

The world will hold my trial for your sins

Never meant to see the sky, never meant to live

God, please promise me that I won't go to hell

They broke into my fragile heart, they've taken Raphael

[Chorus]

I fell in love with a promise, a shell of what you could be

In another life, I will hold you

Raphael, don't you cry for me

I will sing to you someday

[Bridge]

In another time, in another life

Maybe I could love you, Raphael

There will be no funeral for a boy that no one ever knew

But I'll still kiss your coffin, Raphael

[Chorus]

In another time, in another life

Maybe I could love you, Raphael

In another time, in another life

Maybe I could love you, Raphael

In another time, in another life

Maybe I could love you, Raphael

There will be no funeral for a boy that no one ever knew

But I'll still kiss your coffin, Raphael
