You've heard before of shallow graves
Where the worst of worst lie their heads
Innocents too can lay their heads
In these graves from long ago
But there's a grave unlike all
In which I will lay my head
Shallow cave Ferrari not
My grave unique from the rest
The pain grows stronger every day
Pressure growing in my head
Ensuring death I know it brings
Like the sun brings morning light
Will I end it when it comes
Take thine gun and pull the trigger
Could I end it just like that
Easy out instead of pain
Or will I instead take the pain
Live each moment like my last
Try and make those moments count
Leave something for the future
To my grave I walk alone
By my side there can be none
I do not like being alone
But leave someone I want not
That's not to say I do not love
I do love her and really wish
Survive the distance I know we could
But afraid I'd leave her far to early
I love her dearly always have
Despite the distance lying between
Made it hard the first time
Can make it hard once again
I know my death is coming soon
Put it off I try and fail
My death comes quickly day by day
I know she knows we all know
Maybe there is a cure
Maybe it's her maybe her
Maybe she can cure me now
But my death is still coming
I know that she will bring it quicker
I know that she will kill me soon
I know that she will end my life
That sickness the distance that lays between us
To my shadowy grave I walk
All alone how ironic
My death is coming far to quick
Will I die today or yesterday
We're far to different from each other
She won't forgive me of my sins
We live to far from each other
So to my death I walk alone
My grave will not have my name
No date of birth or date of death
None will cry at my death
Celebrate instead they will
I know that she will bring it quicker
We're far to different from each other
There are some things we share between us
Enough to last there is not
I know that she will kill me soon
She won't forgive me of my sins
We've known each other far to long
Because of that it could never work
I know that she will end my life
We live to far from each other
I'll give her my love once again
She'll give me pain once again
Because of that I walk alone
My death I know is coming soon
One of them will soon kill me
One or two or maybe three
When I lie in my shadowy grave
Head and heart no longer work
Soul and spirit ground to dust
Only then will it be clear
No matter the answer I will be wrong
All can kill me all can cure me
She will kill me she will cure me
But who she is I will never know
She could be her it is true
There are some things we share between us
Complete fresh start it would be
Date a goddess among women
She could be her it is true
We've known each other far to long
It would be cliché I will admit
Would not stop me from dating her
She could be her it is true
I'll give her my love once again
Return it she would once again
Distance bedamned it wouldn't matter
She has the power of death over life
Cure me or send me to my grave
Who can cure me who can kill me
I do not know will never know
I walk alone to my grave
Pain in my head slowly spreading
Encasing my heart in icy grip
My death comes quicker day by day
When I die no one will cry
Jeers and shouts instead there'll be
They'll celebrate through the streets
They'll spit upon my shadowy grave
And as I lie in my grave
No tears will fall from my eyes
I'll give a sigh full of sorrow
I'll be alone in the shadows
