lyrics

Live fast, die young
Be who the stories come from
Relive the glories as an urban allegory
Here lies a man who dreamed
But wasn't what he seemed
But my facade is what they'll etch into the rock on top of me

A world away
To burst or to fade

And I'll tell you don't get close to me
And I'll try to stay a mystery
Cause I don't think you'd like what you see
You can view me from a distance
But I'll deter your persistence
If you get too close you'll see why I'm ashamed
So could you please just be a flower on my grave

Eyes closed, grip strong
A story passed down eons
My consternation due to lack of constellations
You lie awake like me
I'm taking time to speak
The lights are off and all my neighbors are asleep

The world awaits
A decision to make

And I'll tell you don't get close to me
And I'll try to stay a mystery
Cause I don't think you'd like what you see
You can view me from a distance
But I'll deter your persistence
If you get too close you'll see why I'm ashamed
So could you please just be a flower on my grave

And I don't want anyone to feel that way
God only knows what's really right for me
We could be a shooting star, so fleeting but it's who we are
Doesn't mean that I don't miss you when we're apart

And I'll let you know you're close to m
And I'll tell you all my mysteries
Cause I don't think you'll mind what you see
You can still be at a distance
Even if I miss your kisses
It's too late and there's no reason to be ashamed

(x2)

And I will let you in, I can keep you to my grave
You'll be a flower in my mind all the same
