The Outro (If You Can't Fall Asleep)
I'm not scared to go
And leave here alone
I need you to know
I'll miss you all
I won't let you go
I'll hold you all close
Until I gotta take everything
And leave it all
This one's for you if you can't fall asleep
I hope you're not crying about me
Cause I know if I left, we'd never touch again
So I stay for another week, another month
Until I get to see you back in Boston, in D.C
And when I come back home I know you'll wait for me
And when you turn sixteen, it's like you just turned three
And all the books your mama gave to me
To put you back to sleep
I bet you'll one day read back to me
What if you write your own
What if you sing my songs
What if I killed myself a long time ago
This one's for you if you can't fall asleep
My sister who I might never meet
Somehow I know that she's a part of me
To all my friends, I hope you're listening
I would say your names, but I'm afraid of losing you all
Cause by autumn I'll be gone
Never been this real with anyone
What a changed man that I've become
What a strong girl there at graduation
Hearing dead names, people celebrating
Suit and tie, or the dress and jacket
I guess we'll see, there's no point in asking
I hope you see me with a new reaction
I hope my family stands there clapping
And leave here alone
I need you to know
I'll miss you all
I won't let you go
I'll hold you all close
Until I gotta take everything
And leave it all
This one's for you if you can't fall asleep
I hope you're not crying about me
Cause I know if I left, we'd never touch again
So I stay for another week, another month
Until I get to see you back in Boston, in D.C
And when I come back home I know you'll wait for me
And when you turn sixteen, it's like you just turned three
And all the books your mama gave to me
To put you back to sleep
I bet you'll one day read back to me
What if you write your own
What if you sing my songs
What if I killed myself a long time ago
This one's for you if you can't fall asleep
My sister who I might never meet
Somehow I know that she's a part of me
To all my friends, I hope you're listening
I would say your names, but I'm afraid of losing you all
Cause by autumn I'll be gone
Never been this real with anyone
What a changed man that I've become
What a strong girl there at graduation
Hearing dead names, people celebrating
Suit and tie, or the dress and jacket
I guess we'll see, there's no point in asking
I hope you see me with a new reaction
I hope my family stands there clapping
