I'm tired of being brave

Acting as if I'm sane

I play the part, but they tell me: Wait

These absinthe gods bearing my name

And if I die before I wake

Please pray for me to fly

My ash will rise amongst the flames

The sky screams out my name

Dream me back into my mother

Dream me back and start me over

Let me lead, you can follow

Into the body of an unborn child

If I die before I wake

Please pray for me to fly

My ash will rise amongst the flames

The sky screams out my name

I've got a secret or two that no eyes can see

When I get to heaven, save a seat for me

I've got a secret or two that no eyes can see

When I get to heaven, save a seat for me

I've got a secret or two that no eyes can see

When I get to heaven, save a seat for me

If I die before I wake

Please pray for me to fly

My ash will rise amongst the flames

The sky screams out my name

And if I die before I wake

Please pray for me to fly

My ash will rise amongst the flames

The sky screams out my name

And if I die before I wake

Please pray for me to fly

My ash will rise amongst the flame

The sky screams out my name
