lyrics

I was standing outside myself
Looking in
Wondering how I got here
And if it matters if everyone dies in the end
I was beside myself
Wondering when you'd ever haunt me again

I had to remind myself
I wasn't looking for a shadow
Or some shell left laying on a table
I was looking for some evidence
You're spirit could remain

In a heartbeat, the intangible things, all the memories, not a life left fading

Maybe you could come back home
It's okay to be a ghost

I was looking for some good news
A lucky silver lining
A new way to look at the painting
Where my sister wasn't dying
I was selfish, and afraid
I knew you were in pain

But I guess I got your heartbeat, the intangible things, all the memories, you will not be fading

You'll live on through your sons kindness
You'll live on through your daughters stubborn nature
You'll live on through your youngest, she's silly just like you
You'll live on through your family
We got your blood, we got your heartbeat
You'll live on through your husband, through your friends, you won't be forgotten

But maybe you could come back home
