[Verse 1]

I never knew your character

Just knew you as a character

Personality, a story

And I fear what mine will be

I fear what mine will be

Is it worth saying we were close

Just so I know

How to mourn with the rest of the party?

The other side's so far off, but closer than I think


[Pre-Chorus]

The other side's so far off


[Chorus]

I fear my own death and those around me

But it's deeper than that, I hope

Forever defined by mortality

Can I find a broader scope?


[Verse 2]

The thought of it makes breath tear thin

Do we really want to win?

Wish we had gotten closer, regret pulls me apart

But that feeling won't save me from the boneyard


[Pre-Chorus]

The other side's so far off

Regret pulls me apart


[Chorus]

I fear my own death and those around me

But it's deeper than that, I hope

Forever defined by mortality

Can I find a broader scope?


[Breakdown]

Wish we had gotten closer

(saying we were close)

Regret pulls me apart

(saying we were close, just so I know)

But that won't save me from the boneyard


[Chorus]

I fear my own death and those around me

But it's deeper than that, I hope

Forever defined by mortality

Can I find a broader scope?


[Outro]

A story

I fear what mine will be
