Elegy Lyrics
I am the stopwatch on a bomb.
I have no the strength to carry on.
My valediction waits for me.
It makes me scared to go to sleep.
My destination can't be far.
I'm in the backseat of this car.
My belt is buckled, locked and clasped.
And I'm not sure how long this ride will last.
I've seen so much. And I've had dreams
But I can't tell you what they mean
And I've been far. Too far to see.
And where I've been is part of me.
And if my life goes flashing by
Like they all say I hope that I
See my entire family.
It's so much bigger than you'd ever thought it to be.
And I've heard songs and harmonies.
I've kept them here inside of me.
And I've had friends - The best indeed.
And who I've loved is part of me (of me)
I can't tell you how much you meant to me.
Never had any opportunity
You're not here to accept apologies
Goodbye.

well i think this song is about scott (duh)... but i love listening to it cause it always makes me think, what if i lose one of my friends. ya gotta appriciate what you got.
Actually this song was written before Scotty died. The album was finished when he passed away. This song is about one of the band's family members battle and eventual loss with cancer. But it does make you appreciate what you've got, and makes you sad at the same time.
This is my favourite Inspection 12 song. <3
