Why's it so goddamn hard to say goodbye These memories feel like blissful hallucinations They say that life is short That you never know when the end will be But these ghosts remain Reminding me that it's not my time And I'll wait forever and another day To receive your next transmission from the grave And I'll stay right here So you won't have to come find me To take my hand And lead me to the place beyond I could just lay here until my body atrophies What good is life if you're just living for the dead? I need to get my head on straight Feel the fire within my soul Turn my dial to maximum Jesus And resurrect all the time I've missed And I'll wait forever and another day To receive your next transmission from the grave And I'll stay right here So you won't have to come find me To take my hand And lead me to the place beyond our dreams And I'll wait forever and another day To receive your next transmission from the grave And I'll stay So you won't have to come find me To take my hand And lead me to the place beyond our dreams And lead me to the place beyond our dreams Lead me to the place beyond
