Like fallen trees, I can swing
I don't wanna behave like this again
Am I still enough for you?
Would you ever change me?
My heart decays in the shade
Can we keep it a secret while we wait?
I'll always belong to you
Nothing will ever change it
And I'll keep calling your name out
But I don't hear if you make a sound
Will you hold me when I'm in the ground?
I'll keep drinking my way out
Could you love me then?
Would you love me then?
A sudden light burns a hole
I can still taste the thunder in your soul
Will you still remember me
When all of this is fading?
And I'll keep calling your name out
But I don't hear if you make a sound
Will you hold me when I'm in the ground?
I'll keep drinking my way out
Could you love me then?
Would you love me then?
I don't wanna behave like this again
Am I still enough for you?
Would you ever change me?
Can we keep it a secret while we wait?
I'll always belong to you
Nothing will ever change it
But I don't hear if you make a sound
Will you hold me when I'm in the ground?
I'll keep drinking my way out
Could you love me then?
Would you love me then?
I can still taste the thunder in your soul
Will you still remember me
When all of this is fading?
But I don't hear if you make a sound
Will you hold me when I'm in the ground?
I'll keep drinking my way out
Could you love me then?
Would you love me then?

This is a deeply personal exploration of inner turmoil, vulnerability, and the fear of being forgotten, using metaphors of decay and escapism to convey feelings of inadequacy and longing for acceptance and love despite one's flaws. Inspired by Dylan Thomas's poem "Do not go gentle into that good night," the lyrics grapple with confronting darkness, seeking hope, and the struggle to hold onto meaning in the face of despair.
