[Intro] [arpeggiated acoustic guitar] [Verse 1] [breathy male vocals] Terrified of forever I keep your jacket in bed next to me The smell of you is the only thing left for me I just lay here, your smell is even on the sheets I see your reflection in the mirror but you're just out of reach I feel the tears running down my face Time is so slow I can't stand its pace They say there's light, they say there's golden gates But what if nothing's there and no one waits? [Chorus] [drums enter, full band] I'm terrified of forever without you Falling through the dark with nothing to hold on to Is there a heaven or just an empty sky? I can't let go I don't want to say goodbye [Verse 2] [acoustic guitar and ambient electric guitar swells] I wonder where you went when your eyes closed I hope you're an angel tasked to help me cope The doctors pulled the plug, the monitor went still Leaving me alone with my heart broken, honoring your will I'm walking blindly through this crowded room Numb to the pain that will come so soon They say there's peace, they say the soul flies free But what if silence is all that's left for me? [Chorus] [driving drum beat, bass guitar] I'm terrified of forever without you Falling through the dark with nothing to hold on to Is there a heaven or just an empty sky? I can't let go I don't want to say goodbye [Bridge] [crescendo, distorted electric guitar layers] I reach my hand towards where you laid in our bed You're not there, but I can't get it through my head I'm so afraid of the life without you A broken man, how will I ever get through? [Chorus] [maximum intensity, vocal belt] I'm terrified of forever without you Falling through the dark with nothing to hold on to Is there a heaven or just an empty sky? I can't let go I don't want to say goodbye [Outro] [drums and bass drop out, solo acoustic guitar] [whispered vocals] Terrified, just waiting in the dark Are you waiting in the dark?
