Will you remember?
Who I was and what I stood for
When all that we knew is gone
Will you tell them I was someone who really tried to do their part?
Have I carried all the burdens of the ones I loved?
My dearest love I feel
All your best wishes truly meant
Yet I cannot help but question
Tell me, is my life well spent?
My dearest love I feel
Best wishes truly meant
Yet I cannot help but question
Tell me, is my life well spent?
To be a ruin or a relic
Is that something we carve out?
We try to write our own
Commemorations
In the present here and now
Drown in our own expectations
The list goes on and on
We add standards to it daily
In the hope that something's left when we are gone
In the hope that something's left when we are gone
And in the puddle I once drowned in
I'm reflecting on me
See the things that I couldn't
And that I can be
Became exhaustion in the flesh
Build my shelter in the soil
A spade of dirt waves me farewell
Not a trace of me is known
As it's coming to a closing
With so little time and words
Fleeting moments where we're trying
To lay claim to our self worth
Of all of the strength I have in my heart
I can only hope it is enough
Of all of the strength I have in my heart
I can only hope it is enough
All things considered
When I'm looking back
Won't I see my life as just a waste of breath?
I gave it all I had
