Everything Goes On

Don't try to make yourself remember, darling
Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told
So let's pretend a little longer
Cause when we're gone
Everything goes on

Well you were staring at the window
And I said, "I’ll just bring the sea to you"

But if I was gone tomorrow, won't the waves crash on?
Is it selfish that I'm happy as we pass the setting sun?

Someday I'll be overcast
But you won't have to cry
Cause we'll do the grieving
While I'm by your side

Don't try to make yourself remember, darling
Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told
So let's pretend a little longer
Cause when we're gone
Everything goes on

And I'm so scared of getting used to this
All the vines that keep you tethered in your room
You said, "I'm sorry that you worry, but don't apologize"
I told you to forget me, but you stayed by my side

Don't try to make yourself remember, darling
Don't look for me, I'm just a story you've been told
So let's pretend a little longer
And when we're gone
Everything goes on
