About the song
No particular story is behind this song. I've had breakups which were easily forgotten and this song just reflects those and the ease of moving on with my life after dealing with the loss.
Lyrics
I keep on wondering what I'd say
if this were my last goodbye/
And if the words I chose
Were the ones that were to cause you to cry/
Oooh...dry your eyes/
Remembering how I felt everytime
You would Leave my bedside/
Cuz all the pain I feel
Just reminds me that I am still alive/
Oh yeah I'm still alive/
Chorus
What a word that describes
Emotions bottled up inside
This hollow shell that dwells within
The dim lit corners of my mind
What made us stumble in
This twisted tangled web that we wove/
Standing on the edge of sin
Is where our love had met its repose/
Oooh...No one knows/
Of the path we took to put is in
This current state of demise/
Although we know that even though
The beast inside is alive/
Oh yeah, it's still alive/
Chorus
Solo
Now the time has come along
To drift across the sea of memories/
Sailing on beyond the reaches of
This perfect lucid dream/
Oh...Nothing's what it seems/
So to paint this picture just
As clear as tonight's twilight/
I'll shut this casket closed
On the thought that aims to keep us alive/
Oh yeah, we're still alive/
if this were my last goodbye/
And if the words I chose
Were the ones that were to cause you to cry/
Oooh...dry your eyes/
Remembering how I felt everytime
You would Leave my bedside/
Cuz all the pain I feel
Just reminds me that I am still alive/
Oh yeah I'm still alive/
Chorus
What a word that describes
Emotions bottled up inside
This hollow shell that dwells within
The dim lit corners of my mind
What made us stumble in
This twisted tangled web that we wove/
Standing on the edge of sin
Is where our love had met its repose/
Oooh...No one knows/
Of the path we took to put is in
This current state of demise/
Although we know that even though
The beast inside is alive/
Oh yeah, it's still alive/
Chorus
Solo
Now the time has come along
To drift across the sea of memories/
Sailing on beyond the reaches of
This perfect lucid dream/
Oh...Nothing's what it seems/
So to paint this picture just
As clear as tonight's twilight/
I'll shut this casket closed
On the thought that aims to keep us alive/
Oh yeah, we're still alive/
