Keepsake

Can’t sleep through the night
You make me suffer
Offer up my life
You can’t remember
Why you needed my wounds
Now you’ll never
See bright lights again
I’ll always remember
Every day that we spent
I wish I could give
My life for yours
Like scenes from a movie
I’d go back in time
And make sure I’d bring you back home
Wear my ash around your neck
Standing clasped between your hands
Decisions rash with no amends
(Wear my ash around your neck)
Justice served like spoiled meat
Soul like hills on blistered feet
(Wear my ash around your neck)
(Ash around your neck)
I’ll always remember
Every day that we spent
I wish I could give
My life for yours
Like scenes from a movie
I’d go back in time
And make sure I’d bring you back home
Wear my ash around your neck
Wear my ash around your neck
