lyrics

When we die, wherever we go,
I hope we know we're not dreaming.
Maybe we'll cry; then when the tears flow
They'll feel real, though not quite the same.
Then, we'll know.

Wipe your eyes, weeping's for weak folk.
Gather your strength up, walk to the door.
Tell no lies, clearing out your throat;
Hoping you don't choke on your own words.
Then, you spoke:

"I think of what I could have been -
God damn!
I think of what I could have been..."

I'll stay right here, inside my room,
No one knows, no one knows
I'll stay right here, inside my room,
No one knows, no one knows

When we die, wherever we go,
I hope we know we're not dreaming.
Maybe we'll cry; then when the tears flow,
They'll feel real, though not quite the same.
Then, we will know.

"I think of what I could have been -
God damn.
I think of what I could have been..."

I'll stay right here, inside my room,
No one knows, no one knows
I'll stay right here, inside my room,
No one knows, no one knows

I'll stay right here, inside my room,
No one knows, no one knows
I'll stay right here, inside my room,
No one knows, no one knows
