I'm so scared of dying
And leaving you behind
Every day I try just to stay alive
So you won't be sitting by
That empty chair at night
I'm smoking like a factory
Come on, keep ahead of me
Don't wanna think of you
Happy and alone
Cos I'm so scared of dying
And leaving you behind
I put a little poison in your cup one time
So lock me up, baby if mercy is a crime
I check your breathing as you sleep
Hoping it slows and stops for keeps
Don't wanna think you might
Have to be alone.
Cos I'm so scared of dying
And leaving you behind
Don't wanna think of you
Running through the worst of me
Or you to figure out
You should've long ago got free
It is better for us both if I survive
So you never know how it feels
To truly be alive.
I'm so scared of dying
And leaving you behind
