If I died we'd be together
I can't always just forget her
But she could try
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Could I
Should I
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever ever
Ever
Get the feeling that you're never
All alone and I remember now
At the top of my lungs in my arms she dies
She dies
At the end of the world
Or the last thing I see
You are
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I
Should I
And all the things that you never ever told me
And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me
Never coming home
Never coming home
Could I
Should I
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me
If I fall
If I fall (down)
Woah, woah

Line by Line Meaning
I never said I'd lie and wait forever
I didn't promise to wait for someone forever
If I died we'd be together
If I died, we would be reunited in the afterlife
I can't always just forget her
I can't always just forget about someone I care about
But she could try
But the person I care about could try to move on
At the end of the world
When everything goes wrong
Or the last thing I see
The final thing I experience
You are
You are always on my mind
Never coming home
You will never come back
Could I
Could I have done something differently
Should I
Should I have acted differently
And all the things that you never ever told me
All the things you never shared with me
And all the smiles that are ever ever
All the happy memories we shared
Get the feeling that you're never
I feel like you're always with me
All alone and I remember now
I feel lonely, but also remember our time together
At the top of my lungs in my arms she dies
I scream in agony as the person I love dies in my arms
And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me
All the emotional wounds that will never fully heal
For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me
Despite my emotional pain, I won't let my past haunt me forever
If I fall (down)
If I become weak or vulnerable
Never coming home
You will never come back
