Spoiler: Everybody Dies

They say that in the end everybody dies
So how come if we all know it still holds the power to make us cry

Funny how we take every effort in our might
To retrospectively blot out every telltale signs

And when it strikes near you like lightning from a clear blue sky
They give you a headstone to take your grief to
But that doesn't work for me

Because nothing, nothing of what's down there
Reminds me in any way of you

Why would one come visit and bring thoughts and prayers
If prayers and thoughts can just as easily be delivered as such

From anywhere at anytime and they just do good
For the one delivering them and not the one they're being delivered to

I don't call it simplistic cause people have done it for a long time
But despite begging to differ I demand understanding
Cause it doesn't work for me

If I needed a physical place in the here and now
Countless ones you gave to me I can choose from
Inseparately connected to you left your mark on them and me
And they will remain linked to you for as long as I can think
