it wasn't a surprise that you had problems, so did i i accepted all those flaws just how you accepted mine 'cause i know you're worth more than the parts that are broken i know you're worth more than the way life is goin' but the smile that once shined started fadin' with time no the depths that you fell didn't come overnight and i didn't speak my mind, no i stood idly by as the love of my life slowly started to die when people ask me if you're doin' alright there's a profound sadness, they can see through the lies i picture stones of your grave...even though you're alive still i smile and say...that we're doin' just fine melancholy. it's so hollow to love you like that though i'd follow you no questions asked if you died in my arms... i couldn't go where you're headed melancholy. can't imagine a life without you but these habits might make it come true if you died in my arms...i couldn't follow you to heaven devil take me if i can't save you when you need me if you love me and you mean it then you'll listen as i'm speakin' 'cause i feel you slippin' further, my compliance is a murder both of you and of my promise i'd protect you 'til forever said i'd care for you in sickness, i'm still here through your addictions said i'd cherish you in health, that's why i beg you to seek help though you won't be by yourself, you have to want that for yourself i'm still with you til the end, but we don't have to live in hell when people ask me if you're doin' alright (alright) there's a profound sadness, they can see through the lies (lies) i picture stones of your grave...even though you're alive still i smile and say...that we're doin' just fine melancholy. it's so hollow to love you like that though i'd follow you no questions asked if you died in my arms... i couldn't go where you're headed melancholy. can't imagine a life without you but these habits might make it come true if you died in my arms... i couldn't follow you to heaven i still love you... more than anyone in the world. i want to share my life with you. to grow old with you. but often i worry you won't make it to tomorrow. melancholy. it's so hollow to love you like that though i'd follow you no questions asked if you died in my arms... i couldn't go where you're headed melancholy. can't imagine a life without you but these habits might make it come true if you died in my arms... i couldn't follow you to heaven
